Kahlua Cake

(from JenniferGM’s recipe box)

This recipe is from a roommate from college. I prefer Duncan Hines devil’s food cake mix. I’ve used all different kinds of sour cream (non-fat, reduced). All work fine, but regular is my preferred.

Easy to make chocolate cake that is moist and rich.

Ingredients

  • 1 package Devil’s Food Cake mix
  • 1 cup Kahlua (may substitute non-name brand coffee liqueur or for stronger taste, coffee brandy)
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips (mini-morsels work best, as they distribute and melt more readily)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375° F. Grease and flour a Bundt or tube pan. (You could also use cocoa instead of flour.)

  2. Mix all ingredients except chips together and beat 2-3 minutes.

  3. Add chips and beat 1 minute.

  4. Pour into a greased and floured Bundt or tube pan and bake for 50-55 minutes. Okay to undercook – better moist. If toothpick inserted has a few crumbs but not liquid, cake is ready.

  5. Before serving (after completely cooled) sprinkle with confectioner’s sugar. For extra special presentation, drizzle with melted chocolate and decorate with fresh strawberries.
