For 14 years I baked two “triple chocolate and Kahlua” cakes at each Eggfest in Peoria, IL that really claimed me some local fame. My recipe was slightly modified of one posted some 22 years ago on the original BGE forum. I’ll be glad to post it if anyone wants.

    HA! Since you begged me so nicely! LOL

    Triple Chocolate and Kahlua Cake

    1 box of Pillsbury Moist Supreme German Chocolate cake mix (forget the ingredients the box calls for - all you want is the mix)

    1 3.9 oz package of Jell-O brand instant chocolate pudding

    6 oz chocolate chips (Hershey’s Special Dark Semi-Sweet chips are the best!)

    1 pint of sour cream  (regular, not Light)

    3/4 cup veggie oil

    4 eggs (yolks + whites)

    1/3 cup Kahlua

     

    Set up the BGE for an indirect cook with plate setter inverted and grill sitting on legs.

     

    Stabilize fire at 350 and make sure there is no smoke - this may take extra time but you really need the 350 stability plus the smoke free fire.

     

    Mix all the ingredients well with a mixer as the batter is very thick!

     

    Spray bundt pan with a baker's spray like Baker's Secret or Bake Ease even if your bundt pan is Teflon coated.

     

    Bake at 350 for 50 to 55 minutes and test with a toothpick. I've baked this several times now and it takes me 60 to 63 minutes before the toothpick comes out clean.

     

    Remove from BGE and let the cake settle and cool still in the bundt pan for at least 15 minutes - flip and it should fall out with ease. Let it cool longer yet - if you can at all so it will firm up...especially since the chocolate chips are still gooey at that warm stage!  Suit yourself about an icing, but I like to let this cake speak for itself!

     

    By the nature of the ingredients it is an extremely moist cake. BTW I think the cake is far better the next day and it really keeps quite well just covered on the counter! I hope yours comes out as well!

    yes - legs up so you can place the grate on top of them.

    I can’t believe Rob is trying to claim that this is his recipe. Sorry, Ron not Rob. Well, I guess he is trying to rob it.

    Seemed pretty clear that you were not claiming it as "yours":

    Maybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL
