Instructions:
Preparing the Cake:
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Heat Butter, Cocoa, and Coca-Cola: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, cocoa powder, and Coca-Cola. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Once boiling, remove from heat.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the hot Coca-Cola mixture over the dry ingredients, and stir until well combined.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Mix in the buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Allow the cake to cool for about 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Preparing the Frosting:
- Melt Butter with Cocoa and Coca-Cola: In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the cocoa powder and Coca-Cola, and bring the mixture to a slight boil.
- Add Powdered Sugar and Vanilla: Remove the saucepan from heat. Gradually stir in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until the frosting is smooth. If using nuts, stir them in at this point.
- Frost the Cake: Spread the frosting over the cooled cake. If the frosting begins to set, you can gently reheat it, adding a tiny bit more Coca-Cola to keep it spreadable.
Serving:
Let the frosted cake set for a few minutes before slicing. Serve and enjoy this decadent Double Chocolate Coca Cola Cake as a delightful treat that’s sure to impress anyone with its unique flavor and moist texture.
