This is very similar in flavor to texas sheet cake. My marshmallows floated to the top during baking. Not very pretty. Maybe a step was left out to heat the marshmallows through and let melt before pouring into pan.

It definately turned out better than I thought, was a little to sweet, would be good with vanilla icecream.

Good, but I'd go for something moister and with some more variety in flavor.

The cake portion of this was very good, moist and with a light chocolate flavor. I would not call it fudgy - the flavor reminds me more of red velvet cake than of a traditional chocolate cake. I used Dr. Pepper, and cut the amount of butter by half; otherwise made as written. (Don't use diet soda - the artificial sweetener is not heat stable!) I did not care for the topping though (which is more of a glaze, not a frosting) - it was WAY too sweet. I made a 9x9 cake and 12 cupcakes; the cake got the topping and the cupcakes were frosted with a "flour icing" recipe, which was much less sweet and complemented the cake better. All in all, pretty good recipe.

This was more a sticky mess of pudding-y goo than a cake. It was far too sweet.

This was surprisingly good. It was quite moist and almost more like a brownie than cake.

The cake part of this recipe was delicious. It was very moist and cooked very well in my "too-hot" oven. It made a great presentation, even in a plain pan. My only complaint is that the icing was a little sweet, and too thin. The powdered sugar also clumped together and took about 10 minutes to mix (on low heat with the other ingredients to get it to blend better). Other than that, this recipe is still a five-star keeper!

Everyone loved this cake! I didn't use walnuts. My fiancé doesn't like sweets or chocolate and he devoured a piece of cake with vanilla ice cream. Took some to work and everyone said it was great! Thanks for the great recipe.

Robin~Thanks so much for the great recipe. My daughter wanted something for the County Fair that reflected her personality and coke, chocolate and marshmallows fit the bill. It was an easy recipe for her to follow (she's 10) and she won a blue ribbon. Thanks again.

This cake reminds me a lot of Texas Sheet Cake...I think the only true difference is that this one adds coca-cola & marshmallows. I used Saco powdered buttermilk as I only rarely use buttermilk. I just added a couple of tbp. in w/ the dry ingredients & added a 1/2 cup of water when I added the eggs. I didn't much care for the frosting until I had it on the cake & then it was superb. Other than using the Saco buttermilk blend, I made no changes to this recipe. It's a keeper as is!

Fudgey and delicious! I cut the butter a couple tablespoons for the cake and frosting. I didn't use walnuts, used a cup less powdered sugar and poked holes in the cake for the frosting to run in. Moist! I used the new black cherry coke and I tasted a very subtle hint of it overall. It was a fun cake. Presentation isn't perfect because of the fragile moist nature but once you taste it....it's a sure keeper.
