How to Make Coca Cola Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9x2 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup Coca-Cola, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Spread 2 cups mini marshmallows evenly in the prepared pan.
- Pour batter over the marshmallows.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting.
- **Prepare the Coca-Cola Frosting:** In a medium saucepan, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) margarine over medium heat.
- Stir in 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 cup Coca-Cola, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and gradually whisk in 4 cups powdered sugar until smooth.
- Stir in ½ cup chopped nuts (optional).
- Frost the cooled cake and let it set before serving.
