Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a medium saucepan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over medium heat. Stir in 1 cup of Coca Cola and heat until the mixture begins to simmer. Remove from heat.

Pour the warm Coca Cola mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Step 5

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually add this mixture to the batter, stirring until smooth.

Step 6

Fold in the mini marshmallows. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 7

Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

While the cake is baking, prepare the icing. In a medium saucepan, melt 0.5 cup of unsalted butter over medium heat. Stir in 0.25 cup of Coca Cola and bring to a simmer.

Step 9

Remove the saucepan from heat and whisk in 0.25 cup of cocoa powder and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Gradually add the powdered sugar, whisking until smooth.
