Coca-Cola Fudge Cake

This is a really moist and delicious chocolate cake! You can't really taste the coca-cola, but I think it makes it extra moist and flavorful! This is chocolately heaven!

Coca-Cola Fudge Cake

For the cake:
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup coca-cola
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 sticks butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 eggs
3/4 cups mini marshmallows
3/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

For the frosting:
1 stick butter
1/2 cup coca-cola
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
3 cups confectioner's sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl pour 1/2 cup buttermilk and then add 1 cup coca-cola. Set aside. In another small bowl combine the flour and baking soda and set aside. In a large bowl beat two sticks of butter till creamy. Add the granulated sugar and beat until blended. To the butter mixture add 2 teaspoons vanilla and 1/2 cup cocoa powder. Beat again until creamy. Next add the eggs and the cola/buttermilk mixture and beat again until smooth and creamy. Add the flour mixture and beat just until incorporated. Finally fold in the marshmallows and the chocolate chips. Pour batter into a greased and floured bundt pan or 9x13 dish. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes. When cake no longer wobbles when you gently shake it it is ready to come out of the oven. (if you bake it in a bundt pan it will take longer than a 9x13 dish). Let cool.
For the frosting, in a saucepan combine 1 stick butter, 1/2 cup coca-cola, 1/3 cup cocoa powder, and 1/2 cup chocolate chips, stirring constantly over medium heat until smooth. 1 cup at a time add the 3 cups of confectioners sugar stirring well between additions. Remove from heat when thick and saucy and stir in vanilla. Let the frosting cool some, and then pour over the cake. Yum!
