When I heard that the theme of this 12 Days of Series this time was going to be our favorite recipes, this Cola Cake instantly came to mind. I first tasted this Cola Cake when my sister-in-law made it for us and it instantly became a family favorite! It was often requested by family members as their birthday cake AND it’s a replica of the one you’ll find at a certain restaurant chain specializing in Southern cooking. Every time we head across the border to the US, that restaurant is one of the first stops we make! This cake is super moist, rich, and delightfully sweet. There are a few different versions out there but this is the classic that I grew up with and the one served in that restaurant we love so much.

Thank you so much for sharing the recipe. My mother in law used coke syrup to settle upset tummies and create cola cakes. I think she used soda in the cake recipe and the syrup in the frosting.
