MOM'S CHOCOLATE COCA-COLA CAKE & FROSTING
This is the recipe my mom used to make my birthday cake when I was a little girl, and the recipe for my son's cake when he requests chocolate. It is very similar to the other Chocolate Coca-Cola Cakes, but the main difference is the little bit of cinnamon that is in it. It is our favorite chocolate birthday cake. For a prettier cake, you can use double-boiler seven minute frosting....it's not chocolate, but it does make a very pretty cake! It is a nice white frosting...almost like a meringue type frosting. Cook time does not include the 7 minutes for the white icing!

COCA COLA CAKE WITH BROILED PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING
This cake is moist and delicious. It's okay to substitute another cola such as Pepsi for the coke, but under no circumstances should diet versions of the drink be used.
