I'd probably modify that frosting a bit, too, to something a little less sweet. But that's just me!

If you feel the same, you will love this cake. Cake: 1 package Duncan Hines devil's food cake mix 3 eggs 1-1/3 cups cherry flavored cola 1/2 cup vegetable oil Frosting: 1 (6 oz.) jar maraschino cherries, drained, reserve juice One box powdered sugar 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease & flour a 13x9-inch pan. Combine cake mix, eggs, cola, and oil in a large bowl. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes. Pour into pan; bake for 33 to 37 minutes or until pick inserted near center comes out clean. Place pan on cooling rack. Frost when cake is cool. Make frosting: Chop cherries into small pieces. Combine powdered sugar, reserved cherry juice & butter in a large bowl. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth & light. Fold in chopped cherries. Spread over cooled cake NOTE: I didn’t think two minutes was long enough to beat the batter. That just didn’t seem long enough to me, so I beat it for about four minutes. If you're lucky enough to be Irish, you're lucky enough! _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
