Recipe Instructions

In a large mixing bowl stir together flour, granulated sugar, and baking soda; set aside.

In a medium saucepan bring cola, butter or margarine, and cocoa powder to boiling over medium heat. Add the hot mixture to the flour mixture; stir until just combined. Add eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla; stir until combined. Gently stir in marshmallows. (They will float to the top.)

Pour the cake batter into a greased and floured 1 3x9x2-inch baking pan.

Bake in a 350F oven about 30 minutes or until a wooden tooth pick inserted near the center of the cake comes out clean.

Transfer cake in pan to a wire rack. Immediately spread Cocoa Topping over cake. Thoroughly cool cake on rack. Cut into squares to serve. Makes 16 servings.

Cocoa Topping: In a medium saucepan bring 1/2 cup butter or margarine, 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1/4 cup cola to boiling. Add 2 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix with a wire whisk until combined. Stir in 1 cup chopped nuts.

NOTE: Generously grease the cake pan with shortening or nonstick cooking spray, then dust it with flour. The cake batter is thick and may need to be spread evenly in the pan.
