In a large bowl mix:
2 cups all purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
In a saucepan over medium high heat stir and bring to a boil:
1 cup butter (2 sticks)
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup coca cola
1/2 cup buttermilk
Take off heat and add to flour mix and whisk until combined.
Add:
2 eggs
1 tsp., vanilla extract
Mix and pour into pan. Bake about 30 minutes. Don't over-bake.
When cake is nearly done make the glaze by mixing in a saucepan:
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup coca cola
Bring to a boil. Remove and slowly stir in 4 cups of confectioners' sugar. Whisk until smooth. Add 1 cup chopped nuts. Once cake is done and out of the oven (toothpick should come out clean), pour warm glaze over hot cake. Serve warm or cold.
Comments: This recipe was on Pinterest and posted by MayFlaum I followed this recipe to the letter and apparently it's delicious! I don't eat chocolate so I can't say personally but all of my food testers have raved about it's moistness, flavor and richness. For my cocoa I used Dark Chocolate so the coloring came out almost black! It really looked great. A cherry on top would have been perfect.
