Coca-Cola Cake



Here's an old-fashioned dessert treat from my childhood. Don't you wish you could get real old-fashioned Coca-Cola to make it? But Classic Coke will work.



2 c. cake flour
2 c. sugar
2 sticks butter
1 c. Coca Cola
1/2 c. buttermilk
2 eggs
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 c. mini marshmallows
Put flour and sugar in large bowl. Mix Coca Cola, butter and cocoa; heat to a boil. Pour over flour and sugar and mix well with wooden spoon, do not use mixer. Add all other ingredients and mix well. Add marshmallows last. They will float on top. Put in 9 x 13 inch floured pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Put icing on cake 10 minutes after it cools.

Icing:
1 stick butter
2 tbsp. cocoa
1/3 c. Coca Cola
1 pound box powdered sugar, sifted
1 tsp. vanilla
Heat to boiling point: butter, cola and cocoa. Pour over powdered sugar and add vanilla. Mix and spread after cake cools.
