    Kahlua Cake

    Seems like there are variations of this Kahlua Cake for every day of the year! My ol' work friend, Michelle, shared her recipe with me many years ago. I made a couple tiny adaptations to Michelle's recipe just to highlight the Kahlua flavor. I figure if it's called "Kahlua cake," you better make sure it tastes like Kahlua, right?

    The moistness, the texture, the flavor -- all amazing!

    • 4 eggs
    • 2 Cups sour cream
    • ⅔ cups Kahlua

    This is a recipe given to me by my friend Michelle a long time ago.  I made just a couple changes to give the cake a little more Kahlua flavor.  I've made this cake so many times and it has always been well-received.

    Directions

    Prepare the cake
    Step 1
    Preheat oven to 325°F
    Step 2
    In large bowl, mix together cake mix, pudding mix, oil, eggs, sour cream, ⅓ cup of the Kahlua.
    Step 3
    When everything is thoroughly combined, stir in 6 ounces of the chocolate chips.
    Step 4
    Pour into greased bundt pan and bake for approximately 1 hour. Cake is done when toothpick inserted into cake comes out clean. After cake has cooled 15 minutes, remove from pan and allow to cool completely.
    Prepare icing
    Step 5
    Over low heat, combine remaining 6 ounces chocolate chips, dark corn syrup and butter until chips are melted. Add Kahlua to taste as well as a little milk to thin the icing out.
    Step 6
    Drizzle icing over cooled cake.

    Be sure to share!
