Coca Cola Cupcakes
I wanted to try these for a while! I used this recipe 2 cups sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups small marshmallows 1/2 cup butter or margarine 1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons cocoa
1 cup Coca-Cola®
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, sift sugar and flour. Add marsh- mallows. In saucepan, mix butter, oil, cocoa, and Coca-Cola. Bring to a boil and pour over dry ingredients; blend well. Dissolve baking soda in buttermilk just before adding to batter along with eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well. Pour into a well-greased 9- by-13-inch pan and bake 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven and frost immediately.
I used Cupcake cases instead and they took around 20mins
They are really moist and light with a slight taste of coca cola
For the icing
225 grams of icing sugar
30 grams of butter
3 tablespoons of cola
1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 packet of cola bottle sweets - either the jelly ones or the fizzy sugary ones, which ever you prefer!
