Cathy, Nicole’s mom, didn’t seem too enthralled with the thought of a Bailey’s pound cake. She mentioned Kahlua. I had to go searching for my bottle of Kahlua. I dragged a chair over to the pantry, so I could stand on it and move all the bottles of wine and whiskey etc in order to get to the Kahlua. <\/p>\n
And then the bottle was close to empty! Oy.<\/p>\n
Cathy thinks desserts are better if they have a bit of chocolate in them too, so the dash of chocolate is for her.<\/p>\n
Because Cathy Told Me To…<\/strong><\/p>\n Cake:<\/strong> Glaze:<\/strong> Preheat oven to 325*F. Butter a bundt pan and then dust with cocoa. Set aside.<\/p>\n Cream together the butter, sour cream\/crisco, sugar and vanilla. Add the eggs one at a time and beat thoroughly.<\/p>\n Sift together the cocoa, flour, baking powder and salt, then add to by thirds, alternating with the milk and Kahlua.<\/p>\n Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes. <\/p>\n When cake is done, remove from oven and cool for ten minutes before inverting onto cake plate.<\/p>\n Glaze: blend confectioners sugar and kahlua until smooth. Pour over the cake while the cake is still warm.<\/p>\n (I sprinkled chocolate chips over the cake, just because I could. lol Oh, and then I had to add a splash of Baileys because there wasn’t enough Kahlua. Oops!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Cathy, Nicole’s mom, didn’t seem too enthralled with the thought of a Bailey’s pound cake. She mentioned Kahlua.
