Cola Cake


Yup, another chocolate cake recipe, can there ever be too many....;-).
I got this recipe from my friend Linda, and it is a favorite cake of hers.
The marshmallows float to the top when the cake bakes. It is a sweet and moist cake and I found that since there is 2 cups sugar in the cake and the Cola is sweet that next time I would cut down on the sugar, but that is only a personal preference. This cake didn't last long and everyone enjoyed it.


CAKE:

  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cocoa
  • 1 cup Cola
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk ( I used milk with a teaspoon of vinegar added)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


  1. In a large bowl combine flour and sugar.
  2. In a saucepan combine the cocoa, Cola, butter, bring to a boil.
  3. Combine the boiled mixture with the flour and sugar mixture.
  4. In a separate bowl mix eggs, buttermilk, baking soda, and vanilla; add to the first mixture
  5. Stir in the marshmallows
  6. Pour into greased 9x13 pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 35 minutes, until cake tests done.

FROSTING:
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa
  • 1/3 cup Cola
  • 1 box confectioner's sugar, (1 pound, or 4 cups)
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional, I did not use)
  1. In a saucepan, bring butter, cocoa, and Cola to a boil.
  2. Stir in the sugar and mix well.
  3. Stir in nuts, if using.
  4. Spread over the cake while both cake and frosting are still warm.
Cut into 16 squares.
Taste best cold from the fridge...;-)
