Ingredients:
- For the Cake:
- 1 box chocolate cake mix (18.25 oz)
- 1 box instant chocolate pudding mix (3.9 oz)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- ¾ cup Kahlua coffee liqueur
- ½ cup water
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons Kahlua
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan or a 9×13-inch pan.
- Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, vegetable oil, Kahlua, and water. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes (Bundt pan) or 35-40 minutes (9×13-inch pan), or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool the cake: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, Kahlua, and milk until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more Kahlua or milk as needed.
- Glaze the cake: Once the cake has cooled, drizzle the Kahlua glaze over the top. Let it set before serving.
Enjoy this rich, flavorful cake with a cup of coffee or a glass of Kahlua on the side for an extra treat!
