Yield 8 plates

Number Of Ingredients 19

Coca Cola Cake
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (Optional) (I think the cinnamon brings out the chocolate flavor even more)
1 cup butter or margarine or two sticks or 16 tablespoons
1 cup coca cola (I always use regular coke and have not tried it with any other kind)
3 tablespoons 100% pure cocoa
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Frosting for Coca Cola Cake
1/2 cup butter or margarine or 1 stick or 8 tablespoons
3 tablespoon 100% pure cocoa
6 tablespoons coca cola
1 (1 pound) package powdered sugar ( Note: 1 pound of unsifed powdered sugar= about 4 1/4 cups. 1 lb. of sifted powdered sugar = about 4 3/4 cups. I used 4 cups of unsifed powdered sugar and it worked fine in this frosting)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup pecans or nuts of your choice(Optional)
