I made this for a party we have when the St. Paddy's Day Parade takes place near your home. I put it in the garage refrig. and with all the people and festivities I forgot to take it out. The next day during clean up my husband found it. It was the best coffee cake ever! I think that the extra day did the cake a favor. It soaked up all the icing I had poured over it right and it went through to the middle. It was moist but not musy and the pecans at the bottom are a must have. They add a nice crunchy topping and the Irish cream liquor gave it a wonderful flavor. I will make this again for my next parade party and maybe I might share it with the guests:)

Wow!!!!This is the best cake I have eaten or made. My husband and I have both worked at some of the best eateries in downtown Chicago and this cake takes the blue ribbon. I read the other reviews and made the following changes. I made two layers coffee, I doubled the coffee liquor in the filling and frosting , I double the instant coffee diulting it in about a tablespoon of hot water and finally I used 3/4 cup of coffee and 1/4 of coffee liquor to pour over the layers. Make sure that when you bake the layers of box cake the bake time is the the shortest time recomended on the box.(like 20-25 min. bake 20 min. no more) I still can't believe that I made the cake it was that good!
