Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, eggs, and water. Mix on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth.
Pour batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish and bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool the cake in the pan for about 10 minutes and poke holes evenly across the top.
In a small bowl, whisk Kahlua and powdered sugar until smooth.
Slowly pour the glaze over the cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes. Let absorb for 10 minutes.
Refrigerate covered for at least 2 hours. Before serving, spread whipped topping on top.
