Instructions
- To make the cake preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease a baking pan and start preparing the other ingredients.
- In a bowl add flour, salt, baking soda and mix it well. Now take a saucepan and heat on medium flame butter, Coca-Cola, cocoa, and buttermilk until they boil.
- Pour it on the flour mixture and add while stirring vanilla essence and eggs.
- Add the batter into the pan and bake it for 30 minutes. To check whether the cake is done or not use a toothpick and put it in the middle of the cake. If it is dry, the cake is done but if it is sticky or wet then heat more.
- While you are baking the cake take a saucepan and add all the ingredients except for sugar and pecans. Bring it to a boil and then add the powdered sugar. Whisk it well and add it to the baked cake-like frosting. Garnish it with pecans or anything you like.
- Serve it with ice-cream
Notes
People who do not have buttermilk at home can mix milk and lemon juice as a substitute. Otherwise, you can easily get it at a grocery shop. Allow the buttermilk to set when you make it at home for the perfect taste.
