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!
ENJOY!

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. | |
