Notes:
If using milk instead of heavy cream, probably only need about 3-4 tablespoons because milk is thinner than heavy cream. Just use your judgment on it (start with less and add a little at a time to get the right consistency). Or you can always add a bit more powdered sugar to the frosting to make it thicker, if you like.

Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 1 boxes - 15.25 oz. chocolate fudge cake mix
- 1 boxes - small instant chocolate pudding (4 oz.)
- - ingredients listed on back of cake mix box (eggs and oil)
- 1 1/3 cups - coca-cola
- 1 sticks - margarine or unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons - unsweetened cocoa
- 4 tablespoons - to 6 tablespoons heavy cream or milk for desired consistency
- 2 cups - (packed) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoons - vanilla extract
- 1/2 cups - chopped pecans optional
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray a 9-x-13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Prepare cake mix according to directions, but instead of adding water, replace that with the coca-cola. Add in the dry instant pudding mix to the batter as well.
3. Pour batter into prepared baking dish and bake according to package directions (usually 35-39 minutes). Just before cake is ready to come out of the oven, start making icing.
4. In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, start melting one stick of butter or margarine. Add in the cocoa powder and heavy cream (or milk, if using), adding cream a little at a time until desired consistency is reached, stirring to combine well. Then stir in confectioners' sugar.
5. Stir briskly with a whisk to get all the lumps out. Take mixture off of heat and add in vanilla extract.
6. Once cake comes out of oven, pour frosting over warm cake. Do your best to spread it out evenly; sprinkle chopped nuts on top, if using.
7. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
