2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon Watkins Cinnamon
1 can (12 ounces) cola
1 cup butter, cubed
1/4 cup baking cocoa
2 large eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon Watkins Vanilla Extract

Glaze
1 can (12 ounces) cola
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1/4 cup baking cocoa
4 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 13x9-in. baking pan.

In a large bowl, whisk the first five ingredients. In a small saucepan, combine cola, butter and cocoa; bring just to a boil, stirring occasionally. Add to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened.
In a small bowl, whisk eggs, buttermilk and vanilla until blended; add to flour mixture, whisking constantly.

Transfer to prepared pan. Bake 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

About 15 minutes before cake is done, prepare glaze. In a small saucepan, bring cola to a boil; cook 12-15 minutes or until liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup. Stir in butter and cocoa until butter is melted; remove from heat. Add confectioner's sugar; stir until smooth. Pour immediately over hot cake. Yield: 15 servings.

Tip:  Sprinkle a bundt pan greased with Watkins Cooking Spray with sugar instead of flour and your baked cake will pop right out.

Magic Tomato Soup Cake






Tip: If only drying a few items in the dryer, throw a clean bath towel in with the load.  The towel absorbs moisture and the clothes will dry faster.
