Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Pan and Oven
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan (or jelly roll pan for thinner cake) and set aside.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda until well combined.
Step 3: Heat the Coca Cola Mixture
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, cocoa powder, and Coca Cola. Stir continuously until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth. Bring just to a gentle boil, then remove from heat.
Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Pour the hot cocoa-Cola mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until smooth. Add the buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until the batter is fully combined and glossy.
Step 5: Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a to toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
