Let Them Eat Cake

Kahlúa sent this to me. (Yes, that Kahlúa)

This sounds like some very good cake. (Yes, I know it has alcohol)
.
I'll have to try this. (Yes, it does sound delicious!)

Kahlúa Chocolate Cake

¾ cup granulated sugar

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease & flour two 9-inch cake pans. Beat egg whites until frothy, then beat in sugar until stiff peaks form. Set aside. Cream butter and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg yolks, one at a time. Sift flour, cocoa, baking soda together. Add to creamed mixture alternately with coffee and Kahlúa; blend well. Fold egg whites into batter. Pour into prepared pans.
