This recipe was created by giving an old recipe from a pamphlet new life. I changed the recipe making it my own. I also added a Kahlua icing. This is an awesome flavorful rich Kahlua cake. I personally love just about any Kahlua Dessert. This is a favorite of mine. It is really delicious. Please sit down, relax, and pour yourself a cup of coffee or tea. Enjoy a slice of this delicious coffee cake.
