Have a can of cola?...make a cake! There is cola in both the cake and the frosting of this chocolate cake-so moist and delicious. I made mine in a sheet cake pan, but for more cake, bake it in a 9x13 pan.
Ingredients: Cake: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 cup butter, 3 tablespoons cocoa, 1 cup cola soda, 1/2 cup buttermilk, 2 beaten eggs, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1 1/2 cups mini-marshmallows. Icing: 1 cup butter, 3 tablespoons cocoa, 6 tablespoons cola soda, 4 cups confectioners' sugar, 1 cup pecans or walnuts, chopped.
Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour and sugar in large mixing bowl. In medium saucepan heat butter, cocoa and cola to boiling, stirring often. Pour over flour/sugar mixture and mix thoroughly. In medium bowl mix buttermilk, eggs, baking soda, vanilla and marshmallows; add to first mixture and stir well. Batter will be thin. Pour into a sheet cake pan or a 9x13 pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes in preheated 350 degree oven or until done. Make icing while cake is baking then pour over hot cake.
Icing: Put confectioners' sugar in medium mixing bowl. Combine butter, cocoa and cola in medium saucepan. Heat to boiliing, stirring often then pour over sugar; beat well. Add nuts and spread on the hot cake.
I've had this recipe for a long time-handwritten from who-knows-where.
