Ingredients

  • Cake:
  • 2 cups unsifted all purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 cup Coca-Cola
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 2 whole eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla
  • 1-1/2 cups miniature marshmallows

Instructions

Step 1

Combine flour, sugar, cocoa, soda and salt. In a saucepan, bring the butter and Cola to a boil and then add to the dry ingredients and mix with a mixer until well incorporated. Add buttermilk, eggs, vanilla and marshmallows and continue mixing until thoroughly mixed together. This will be a very thin batter with the marshmallows floating on top. Bake in a 9 x 13 inch baking pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray in a preheated 350° oven for 45 -60 minutes until a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean when inserted in the middle of the cake.

Step 2

Frosting:
½ cup unsalted butter
2 Tablespoons cocoa
6 Tablespoons Coca Cola
1 box or pound of confectioner's sugar
1 cup of chopped nuts, optional (I didn't use these)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla
Combine butter, cocoa and Cola in saucepan and bring to a boil. Pour over the confectioner's sugar and mix well. Add nuts and vanilla and continue mixing until blended together. Spread over cake while hot. Completely cool cake before serving.

Step 3

Please note: The Original World of Coca Cola was opened in 1991 near Underground Atlanta. It was replaced and relocated in 2007 at the current location in Centennial Park.
