COCA-COLA CHOCOLATE CAKE
I've had this recipe for probably 30 years. It's been awhile since I made it but it's nice and moist, wonderful flavor. Several already on this site but none with these exact ingredients. The icing is a bit thin if you follow directions, it's more like a glaze, so I think it needs maybe another cup of powdered sugar.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat the sides and bottom of spring form pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Melt stick of butter in a large, wide sauce pan.
- Add cola, cocoa powder and superfine sugar and whisk until smooth. Remove from heat.
- Whisk sour cream, eggs and vanilla thoroughly until almost a batter-like consistency and add slowly into the slightly cooled butter mixture.
- Add dry Original Mashed Potato flakes and baking soda. Stir thoroughly. The batter will have a slightly grainy appearance but don't be concerned.
- Pour into spring form pan and bake for 45 minutes to an hour. Test center of cake with a wooden toothpick (cake is done when the toothpick comes out clean).
- Cool and remove from spring form pan. Note: This is a very dark and dense cake.
- Frosting: The cream cheese should be at room temperature. Add cream and powdered sugar and mix in a food processor or with a large whisk. Adjust powdered sugar and cream to ensure a nicely thick frosting that is still spreadable.
- Frost just the top of the cake once it's unmolded and serve chilled. This cake is even better the next day!

Stir briskly with a whisk to get all the lumps out. Take mixture off the heat and add in vanilla extract. Once cake comes out of oven pour frosting over warm cake. Do your best to spread it out evenly. Sprinkle chopped nuts on top, if using. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

- 7. Add vanilla extract and pecans. Spread over hot cake. Frosting will melt into cake but will also make a fudgey topping over the cake also.
- 8. Cool then cut into squares and serve alone or with ice cream.
Tips:
- Use genuine Coca-Cola for authentic flavor. Other colas may alter the taste of the cake.
- For a rich, moist cake, use buttermilk instead of regular milk.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a dense, dry cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the cake.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
- For a smooth, creamy frosting, use softened butter and cream cheese.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- To make a chocolate Coca-Cola cake, add 1/2 cup of cocoa powder to the dry ingredients.
- For a fun twist, try adding chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or sprinkles to the batter.
