Zubereitung von Chocolate Pepsi Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, pour in 1 box (15.25 oz) of chocolate cake mix.
In a separate bowl, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter. Add 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and whisk until smooth.
Add the melted butter-cocoa mixture to the cake mix.
Add 1/2 cup applesauce, 2 tablespoons ketchup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup Pepsi cola to the bowl. Mix well.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup buttermilk and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
Add 2 large eggs to the buttermilk mixture and whisk until combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients (buttermilk mixture) to the cake batter, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in 1 cup mini marshmallows.
Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
**Make the icing:** In a medium saucepan, melt 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter over medium heat.
Whisk in 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder until smooth.
Stir in 1/4 cup Pepsi cola, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon ketchup.
Bring to a slow boil, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and gradually whisk in 2 cups powdered sugar until desired consistency is reached.
Stir in 1/2 cup chopped English toffee pieces.
Pour icing over the cooled cake and spread evenly.
Let the cake stand for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the icing to set.
