IIRC, from 3rd grade phonics classes, it will have two k's.  This provides the break between the first and second syllables allowing the primary accent to be on the first syllable.

uk-kum-puck-y

Who still suspects the early uses of the word had only one "k", thusly: 
"ukumpucky".
And, who has at least two defunct 4 kc filters scheduled for examination.
