How to cook deliciously - Cherry Cola Cake

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350°. Line bottoms of 3 greased 9-in. round baking pans with parchment; grease paper. Divide marshmallows among pans.

2. Stage

In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar and baking soda. In a small saucepan, combine butter, cola and cocoa; bring just to a boil, stirring occasionally. Add to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened.

3. Stage

In a small bowl, whisk eggs, buttermilk and vanilla until blended; add to flour mixture, whisking constantly. Pour into prepared pans, dividing batter evenly. (Marshmallows will float to the top.)

4. Stage

Bake 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to wire racks; remove paper. Cool completely.

5. Stage

For frosting, in a small bowl, beat butter and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Beat in marshmallow creme and juice concentrate on low speed just until combined; increase to high and beat until smooth.

6. Stage

Place 1 cake layer on a serving plate; spread top with 1 cup frosting. Repeat with second layer. Top with remaining cake layer; spread with remaining frosting. Decorate with cherries.
