This was just the bees knees! I had a special guest for dinner and the family inhaled it! It was so moist and chocolately it need only simple garnishment. I dollop of whipped cream and a few chocolate sprinkles and dessert was on! I did add a 1/3 cup of flour for high altitude, though. Sure was a special finish to a great meal and I sent 4 pieces home with the visiting folks, by request. Thanks for a wonderful keeper!

Lisa, this cake is DIVINE! Very, very easy to mix up and bake. I could only squeeze a half of a cup of Kahlua out of the bottle, so it was shy of the 3/4 cup called for in the directions. Didn't really seem to matter. It's still yummy! Made a simple chocolate chip glaze for the top and Voila! This could quite possibly become my favorite cake! Thanks a bunch for posting. Laudee C.

This is Excellent. I made for my husbands birthday cake yesterday and he loved it. It is not too sweet and the glaze contrasts so nicely with the dark cake and makes such a lovely presentation. Served with some french vanilla ice cream and you're in heaven! The only variation I made is that I used devil's food instant pudding instead of regular chocolate, and the only change I would make in the future is to warm the kahlua before mixing with the sugar for the glaze, just for easier mixing. This will be made often at my house. Thanks Lisa for a great recipe!
