This was a popular thing in the 1970's , my wife (Debbie) would make it for her "Pokeno" parties and I got to eat all the leftover cake ... still love it . The Coke gives it a unique flavor, a simple sheet cake that's easy to make ... and brings back fond memories .
Ingredients:
1 cup regular Coke-a-Cola (not diet or sugar free or caffiene free...real Coke)
1/2 cup cooking oil ( like Wesson Oil )
1 stick real Butter
3 Tbspns Hersey's Cocoa Powder
2 Cps. Sugar
2 cps. plain flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 eggs @ room temperature
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Frosting Ingredients:
1 stick butter (softened)
2 1/2 Tbspns. cocoa powder
6 Tbspns. cream or milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 3/4 cup confectioners sugar
Directions:
1. In a saucepan mix coke-a-cola , oil , butter and Herseys cocoa powder and bring to a boil . In a bowl combine sugar , flour and salt.
Pour the Cola mixture over the flour and beat well .
2. Add eggs , buttermilk , baking soda and vanilla and beat well . Pour mixture into a greased and floured 13 X 9 baking pan . Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 mins.
3. Frosting : In a saucepan combine butter , cocoa and milk . Heat untill the butter
melts . Beat in the remaining vanilla and confectioners sugar untill smooth .
4. Spread frosting on still warm cake . Let cool until frosting sets .
I didn't say this but a piece eaten while still warm ... it's pretty darn Awesome !
