I was searching for ideas and tips on using soda (aka “coke” if you’re in the South) in cakes in preparation for this month’s Iron Cupcake: Earth challenge (soda pop is the theme ingredient). And that’s when I found it. And once I found it, I had to have it. Do you ever get those uncontrollable urges (needs) to bake something? What is *it*? Coca Cola Cake. I’ve never had it before. I found it on Southern Plate. But once I read about it with the cocoa and the marshmallows and the cocoa I had to have it. The coca cola addition was more a curiosity to me than anything else. I was no longer thinking about Iron Cupcake, I was only thinking about tasting this cake.
So I stopped at the store on the way home from work with 2 things on my list: marshmallows and a bottle of Coke. I had everything else I needed at home. And like a woman possessed, I baked. I wasn’t entirely sure what I was going to do with 13×9 inches of cake when I was the only one there to eat it but that was not a good enough reason to stop.
