1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup cocoa
2 eggs

1 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

Place in a sauce pan butter, coke, semi sweet baking square and bring to a
boil remove from heat and add marshmallows and stir until all is blended
and the marshmallows are disappear. Set aside to cool enough to tepid or
room temperature. In mixing bowl blend the shortening, oil, vanilla and
sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and buttermilk and beat until smooth. Mix
flour with baking soda, cocoa, baking powder and salt, add half of flour
mixture to shortening, egg mixture, and beat. Scrape bowl time to time to
clean the sides off so ingredients are blended in batter. Add cooled coca
cola mixture and beat. Add remainder of flour and beat until completely

x 9" x " 2 oiled and floured baking pan. Set pan on top shelf in a
preheated 350 degrees oven for 35 - 40 minutes. Check for completed baking
time with a toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean by sticking in the
middle of the cake its time to come out of the oven and cool.

1/2 cup cocoa
1/4 cup Coca Cola (plus 2-3 Tbsp. if needed)

frosting. If the frosting seams a little dry add a little more coca cola
and beat well. Frost warm cake. Serve with natural vanilla bean ice cream
and enjoy.
