ingredients

1 box (18.5 ounce size) moist chocolate cake mix
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup oil
4 large eggs
1/2 cup warm water
1 package (4 ounce size) instant chocolate pudding mix
1/4 cup Kahlua
1 package (12 ounce size) semisweet chocolate chips

Glaze

1/2 cup butter, cut in bits
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup Kahlua
1/2 teaspoon instant coffee granules

directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan.

Combine the cake mix, sour cream, oil, eggs, water, chocolate pudding mix, and kahlua in a large mixing bowl. Beat on low speed for 1 minute then increase the speed to medium-high and beat the cake batter for 3 minutes.

Stir the chocolate chips in by hand. Transfer the batter to the prepared Bundt pan. Place the pan in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

Remove the cake from the oven and set on a wire rack.

Combine the glaze ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar and coffee granules have dissolved.

Pour some of the glaze over the warm cake while still in the pan. Let cool completely then invert the cake onto a plate. Reheat the glaze gently over low heat. Drizzle the remaining glaze over the top of the cake.

Store leftover cake in an airtight container.

  1. judewoman1 REVIEW:

    This Kahlua chocolate cake was simple and I shall give it 5 stars, but I am wondering if it can be frozen. Judith

    • Most cakes freeze fairly well. It would probably keep better if you freeze it without the glaze, however.

  2. birthdaybaker REVIEW:

    I made this cake years ago and people still remember it and ask for it. You put the instant coffee in with icing, not the cake mix. Fantastically rich and scrumptious!

  3. Guest Foodie

    You say add all ingredients in a mixer, but then in the icing prep you utilize the coffee. Is the coffee divided or just used in the icing?
