This is another recipe that’s an old favorite of mine. Growing up, my mom would make this Chocolate Kahlua Cake for all kinds of events: pot lucks, parties, holiday gatherings. And it was always a hit!
I’ve been told more than once by people that this is the absolute best chocolate cake they’ve ever had. And I’d have to agree!
This Chocolate Kahlua Cake is unbelievably decadent, and oh so irresistible. The cake itself is moist, super chocolaty, and packed with chocolate chips. It’s then topped with a yummy chocolate Kahlua glaze, to make it look just as good as it tastes!
The Kahlua really kicks up the flavor of this cake to make it wonderfully rich. You can’t taste any alcohol, and this cake is suitable for all ages to enjoy!
Looking for even more crowd pleasing desserts? I’ve got you covered. These Cookie Butter Swirl Brownies are absolutely irresistible, and so easy to make! Or if you want something more fruity, check out this Strawberry Tres Leches Cake. Not only is this cake delicious, but it’s absolutely beautiful as well, with pink strawberry whipped cream and fresh cut strawberries on top. Finally, if you’re looking for a chocolate snack that’s a bit healthier, these Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins will do the trick.

Looks yummy!
The recipe says mix eggs well, but doesn’t list them as an ingredient. How many eggs?
My mistake, the ingredients list should include 2 eggs. I will update the recipe, thank you for noticing!
Wow looks so yummy 😋
