This easy Kahlua bundt cake uses a box cake mix for simplicity so it takes just a few minutes to prepare– but it’s a rich and delicious dessert!

I’m moooooving!  My itsy-bitsy kitchen will be itsy-bitsy no more and I could not be more thrilled with this prospect. 

But you know what’s the opposite of thrilling?  Packing.  And moving to another state.

Those two things are tedious and terrifying, respectively.  Despite the fact that I’m moving to Phoenix, home to my brother and a handful of good friends, I’m a little sick to my stomach about it. 

From previous moving experiences I know that the first five or so boxes I pack will be meticulously organized and labeled and in no danger of the bottom falling apart for lack of tape.  But all subsequent boxes will be thrown together haphazardly at best, and the movers will be lucky not to drop the boxes’ contents on their feet.

Can I ask you?  At what point will I be grown up enough that I no longer take the lazy way out?  Will that EVER happen in my life?  Honestly, I’d doubt it.

Procrastination has never been my thing but I have a living room full of cardboard boxes calling me and I just.can’t.deal right now so I baked a cake. 

A bundt cake. 

With Kahlua in it—and on it (in glaze form) and with a healthy dose of vodka mixed in too, for good measure. 

(And as a bonus, this cake uses a box of cake mix I have in my cupboard.  One less thing to move!  Total win.) 

Because grownups can have delightfully boozy and delightfully easy Kahlua bundt cake even if they can’t grow up enough to pack their possessions in such a way that they won’t have to replace/glue back together everything that breaks in the moving process.

I know that some people frown on baking with cake mixes because from-scratch cakes are so much better and I agree, but only up to a point.  While you really can’t beat a fully homemade cake, baking with cake mixes can be fun and nostalgic.

They remind me of college, when I was too tired to bake but needed a sugar rush to get through studying, so I’d eat yellow cake batter from a box.  Don’t worry—I didn’t add the eggs because I didn’t want salmonella.  I’m healthy like that.

This recipe uses a white cake mix, but I think you could use yellow or chocolate—whatever you have on hand—and it would be delicious.  Really, you probably won’t be able to tell exactly what mix you used anyway, since the liquor is pretty predominant.  (Not a bad thing for me right now.) 

Have a wonderful week, and remember: a boozy Kahlua bundt cake  cures the Monday blues!

This easy-as-pie Kahlua bundt cake gives you a healthy dose of boozy goodness, and is as moist and light as can be.

Ingredients
Cake:
  • 1 16.25-ounce box white cake mix
  • 1 3.56-ounce box instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 4 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup Kahlua

Glaze:
  • 1/4 cup Kahlua
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • whipped cream and additional powdered sugar for serving (if desired)
Instructions
Cake:
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Generously spray a 12-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray. Sprinkle with flour, then tap out any excess. Set pan aside.
  2. Combine the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, and oil in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the Kahlua, vodka, sugar, and coffee and mix well.
  3. Pour into prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully invert cake onto a serving platter.
Glaze:
  1. Combine the Kahlua and powdered sugar in a small mixing bowl. Whisk until completely smooth. Spoon over the warm cake, then let stand until cool. Dust cake with additional powdered sugar and serve with a healthy dollop of whipped cream, if desired.

    Aww this is such a fun post Kelsie 🙂 Kahlua is my FAVOURITE LOVE LOVE LOVE !!!! So I definitely will be making this.
    Wow, so you are moving…that is quite a big move ! You know what, for me the packing of the boxes isn’t all bad, but the unpacking is the worst !!! Trying to decide where goes what, and then having a re-shift of ideas blah blah blah. So, trust me….I will be thinking of you. Word of advise, go and buy extra thick tape, nothing is worse than really getting into the packing flow of things and then the tape runs out !
    Thinking of you 🙂 and thanks for a great Monday Blues recipe 🙂 x

    That’s so exciting!! Moving (well, packing) definitely sucks big time. I remember when we moved last time, it was like you described – the first few boxes were so neat and tidy. By the time we were part way through, everything went every which way and into bags and everything. And when we moved it was sooooooo cold that pretty much all of our houseplants didn’t make it. Once you get settled in, it will be worth the torment, I’m sure. Plus, packing gives you an opportunity to go through your stuff and get rid of things you don’t use or need anymore – see, positive thinking 🙂 Monday definitely requires cake (and so does moving – hey, you need the energy 😉 ). Love this boozed up version and I bet the Kahlua works lovely with the chocolate! Cheers to a great week and good luck packing!

      Thank you Dawn! I need to start thinking positively right about now. I’m actually considering donating all my possessions to Goodwill so I can stop packing and start fresh :). Ugh that sucks about your houseplants. I’m thinking mine might overheat as it’s like 1000 degrees in Phoenix and I’m a terrible plant-tender to begin with. Have a great week!

    Oh man, a slice of this boozy cake is totally how I want…no, need…to start my day today! I am so not enthused about the fact that it’s Monday morning right now. But I bet I would forget about that if I had a slice of Kahlua cake in front of me. This cake sounds amazing! Also, moving, eh? I hear you 100% on moving. I wouldn’t mind a move myself, but the thought of tackling the boxes and then getting the next place set up like I want is just too much. But hey, Phoenix is closer than San Diego…so that means I won’t have to drive as far to get a slice of this cake. 🙂 Good luck with the move, my friend!

    Moving is so exciting! We are actually moving in a couple months, but not to a new state. We did that two years ago and it IS stressful!! I’ll be sending ALL the positive vibes your way, girlfriend! And when I start to pack boxes next month, I’ll DEFINITELY be thinking of you! 😉 I’d say a boozy bundt cake is totally in order for today! And holy moly did you deliver! This looks amazing, girl! LOVE the kahlua in here! This looks dangerously delicious! Cheers, lady!

    Wow Kelsie! This cake is a winner! Do you have any vodka and Kahlua left? To mix a cocktail with and pair it with your next slice while packing? Packing is not so fun, but as long as everything you need gets to your new place:) Books are what scares me the most – always the heaviest and the most numerous item… Safe travels to you!

    good luck on your move!! it sounds like a lot of work, but the prospect of a not so itsy bitsy kitchen is exciting (: this cake brings back so many good memories! my extended family used to make this a lot, but with only kahlua, and they chocolate-ified it with chocolate cake mix and plenty of chocolate chips. i’m moving all my things home after june because i’m not renewing my current lease, and i’m definitely trying to get rid of/use up as many things as possible (read: i can identify with how accomplished you felt when you used up that box of cake mix lol).

Our house is on the market but we had two signed contracts that both fell through in the last two weeks for various reasons. ARRGGHHH. Needing a slice (or three) of this boozy cake ASAP to get me through the for sale by owner blues…Keep persevering and using that packing tape. Hopefully it will all be over soon for both of us, I’m not a fan of packing up the house one Itsy-Bitsy Bit! XO

Your idea of baking a boozed up chocolate cake is so much better than packing stupid boxes. I’m going to the store to buy some boxed cake mix and pudding mix and making this ASAP…and I’ll serve it with a big mug of kahlua spiked coffee 😉

At such times, whatever comes to the rescue in delicious form, you take it. whether it is cake mix, or lots of boooze or a mixture of both right?? Digging that kahlua and vodka booziness in this.

    oh the moving! Always gives me mixed feelings. Ever since I moved out of my parents house, I probably moved like 12 times LOL, 5 times in the last 6 years itself. Crazy!! But a bigger kitchen is always motivating 🙂

      I just keep telling myself the move is worth it because I’ll finally be able to spread out in my kitchen! I seem to move every few years and I don’t know why 🙂

    Congrats on the move! Always a pain (as you know only too well at the moment!) but always fun once you get settled in. Anyway, terrific cake — love any and all bundt cakes, and this one looks exceptional. Thanks!

    omg yesss this looks absolutely awesome!! And I am the SAME way with moving. We moved into our house about 3 years ago and STILL have some boxes in our basement that haven’t been unpacked. I just found them and it’s clear they were the “ahhh the movers are coming in an hours, throw everything in boxes!” boxes. We should have just thrown everything out at the time; clearly I haven’t missed it!! Congrats on the move and GOOD LUCK!! 🙂

      Thank you Sues! I know I’m going to have a bunch of those boxes at the end of this; I wish I had the guts to just throw everything away right now!

    Congratulations on a newer, bigger kitchen. It sounds like you’re moving towards a great phase of life! Don’t let the packing get you down; after just a short time, everything will be outside the boxes again, and you can set things up at your own speed. I also procrastinate with baking. Cheers. ^^

      Thank you Liz! I’m so excited to have more space and I’m trying REALLY hard to focus on that instead of the stress of moving :). Have a wonderful weekend, my friend!

    You gave me a belly laugh about the salmonella and the eggs. I think we might be long lost twins or something 😉 Congrats on the big move and the bigger kitchen!

      Thank you Carlee! We just might be–I mean, we’re both awesome and we both love food. Betcha we’re related somehow!

    I haven’t moved anywhere yet (yes, I’m 25 and still living at my parents’ house but they don’t live here anymore so I guess it’s okay?) – but the thought stresses me out. And I guess if there’s an occasion that being intoxicated with cake is totally okay, it would be for packing and moving! Good luck with moving and congrats on your bigger kitchen! 🙂

      I think you’re smart for not moving. It’s seriously such a hassle! Thank you Teesh! Happy Monday!

    I love boozy food! This would be my ideal birthday cake – booze in AND on the food! 🙂
    P.S. My boyfriend and I are moving to another country in two weeks, so I can fully empathise with the packing mission! Good luck.
