Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the Coca Cola, butter, and cocoa powder. Stir occasionally until the butter has melted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and sugar. Pour the warm Coca Cola mixture over the flour mixture and stir until well combined.
-
Add the buttermilk, eggs, baking soda, and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
While the cakes are baking, prepare the frosting by melting the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the Coca Cola and cocoa powder, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and whisk in the confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract until the frosting is thick and creamy.
-
Once the cakes have cooled completely, place one layer on a serving plate and spread a layer of frosting on top. Place the second layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining frosting.
-
If desired, sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top of the cake for added crunch and flavor.
-
Slice and serve your Coca Cola Birthday Cake with a cold glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a truly indulgent treat!
