This is my favorite cake to make when company comes. It's so simple, but very elegant. And the Kahlua gives it that extra something that people just can't put their finger on! I received a beautiful bundt pan last Christmas, so instead of a glaze I usually just sprinkle with powdered sugar. It looks Fabulous!

Man did I mess up??? I unknowingly left out the cup of oil. Needless to say the cake was much "heavier" than it should have been. But guess what???? It turned out really great!! I like it like this and will probaly do the same thing next time!! Thanks Miss Annie

This was a good cake. I felt like I should have added something to it when done. It just didn't have a good appearance. Maybe I did something wrong. Tasted good.

I had enough Kahlua for the cake but not the glaze. So I made the glaze with softened butter and a little cream and drizzled that over the cake. That worked out nicely, but next time I'll have enough Kahlua on hand to make it as posted. It's a very delicious cake and makes a pretty presentation too!
