Kahlua cake is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with a rich chocolate cake that is soaked in Kahlua, a coffee-flavored liqueur. The cake is then topped with a creamy Kahlua frosting and chocolate shavings.

In this blog post, I will share my recipe for Kahlua cake. I will also share some tips and tricks for making the perfect Kahlua cake.

Ingredients

  • 1 (15.25-ounce) box chocolate cake mix

  • 1 (3-ounce) box instant vanilla pudding mix

  • 16 ounces sour cream

  • 3/4 cup Kahlua

  • 3/4 cup vegetable or canola oil

  • 4 large eggs

  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.

  2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, pudding mix, sour cream, Kahlua, oil, and eggs. Beat until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips.

  3. Pour batter into prepared bundt pan.

  4. Bake in preheated oven for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  5. Let cake cool in pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

  6. To make frosting, beat together 1 cup butter, 3 cups powdered sugar, 1/2 cup Kahlua, and 1/4 cup milk until smooth.

  7. Frost cooled cake and enjoy!

Tips and Tricks

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate cake mix.

  • To make the cake extra moist, soak it in Kahlua for 30 minutes before frosting.

  • If you don't have a bundt pan, you can bake the cake in a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just be sure to increase the baking time to 70 to 75 minutes.

  • For a fun twist, add some coffee beans to the batter.

  • To make a Kahlua glaze, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 1/4 cup Kahlua, and 1 tablespoon milk until smooth. Drizzle glaze over cooled cake.
