Coca Cola Sheet Cake
This is my favorite cake recipe as the cake is so moist and delicious. And of course...it's easy!! I don't always use the buttermilk, but I do have a can of powdered buttermilk I keep in the pantry. Both work really well! Also, I sometimes buy Mexican Coca Cola as it gives it a very good flavor as well.
Cake Ingredients:
1 c Coca Cola
1 stick of butter
1/2 c canola oil
3 T Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate and Cocoa
2 c sugar
2 c all purpose flour
1/2 tsp finely ground sea salt
2 extra large eggs
1/2 c buttermilk
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla extract
Frosting Ingredients:
1 stick butter
3 T Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate and Cocoa
6 T heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 lb box of confectioners sugar
Cake Directions:
Mix Coke, butter, cocoa, and oil to a slow boil in a large saucepan. In a large bowl combine sugar, flour and salt. Mix together and pour boiling mixture into the bowl. Blend well with a hand mixer until smooth. Add the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla, and baking soda and continue to blend well for at least five minutes. Pour batter into a greased 9X13 Pyrex dish (spray with Pam first). Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Make sure the knife is clean to ensure it is done!
Frosting Directions:
Combine butter, cocoa, and heavy cream in a saucepan until the butter melts completely. Beat in the vanilla extract and confectioners sugar with a hand mixer until smooth. Spread frosting (you can pour it) over the hot cake. Do not cut until it has cooled completely as everything needs to set.
