Ingredients
Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13 baking pan.
In a saucepan over medium heat, bring cola to a boil and reduce to 1 cup syrup (approximately 15–20 minutes); let cool slightly.
Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
In another bowl, whisk buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla, and cola syrup until combined.
Fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined; pour into the prepared pan.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs; let cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
In a bowl, cream together butter and cocoa powder, then beat in powdered sugar and milk until smooth and spreadable.
Spread frosting over the cooled cake and sprinkle with marshmallows or nuts if desired.
