Coca-Cola Sheet Cake With Coca-Cola Frosting
I find it very difficult to have just one slice of this cake, it truly is that good! This recipe has been around our family and friends for years and still comes up as one of our all time favorites. The balance of sweetness with the cocoa and the blend of spice with the Coca -Cola, what a great recipe. This is a recipe that will serve a large crowd or a very hungry family. I can't tell you how many times this cake has gone to pot-luck suppers, picnics or gatherings with friends and family. You can't go wrong with this old stand by!

ReplyDeleteIt really looks moist! Thanks for sharing at the What's for Dinner party. Hope you're taking good care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteWe live on the west coast of Florida, and we are really cold here too. I am in a sweater, leggings, and socks, and the heat is on! And I used to live up north and was fine in the cold weather. My dear, sweet mother used to make a coco cola cake, and I am going to drive myself crazy thinking what it was. She had early onset Alzheimers, and a lot of stuff went in the garbage, before I knew. Recipes, jewelry, photos, etc. Only now, years later, can I smile when I think of her and not cry. Stay warm!
