Chocolate Cherry Cola Cake
- 1 Box Devil's Food cake mix
- 1 cup (8 ounces) cherry cola
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- One 10-ounce jar maraschino cherries, drained (reserve 1/4 cup of the liquid) and chopped
- 1/3 cup butter, at room temperature
- 4 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- One 7-ounce jar marshmallow creme
- 18 fresh cherries, chopped
- 1. Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350u0b0F. Grease a 9 x 13- inch cake pan.
- 2. Whisk together the cake mix, cherry cola, oil, eggs, vanilla, and the reserved cherry juice in a large bowl until well combined. Stir in the maraschino cherries. Pour the batter into the cake pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pan for at least 1 hour.
- 3. Make the frosting: Using an electric mixer, beat the butter in a large bowl until fluffy. Gradually add 2 cups of the powdered sugar. Slowly beat in the milk and vanilla, then beat in the remaining powdered sugar. Add the marshmallow creme and mix well, then fold in the cherries. Frost the cooled cake in the pan.
