1-1/3 c. all-purpose flour 3/4 c. plut 1 T. sugar 1/2 t. baking soda 1/4 t. salt 1 large egg 1/2 c. buttermilk 1 t. vanilla extract 1/2 c. unsalted butter 2 T. cocoa powder 3/4 c.

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F and put in a baking sheet at the same time. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Beat the egg, buttermilk and vanilla in a measuring cup. In a heavy bottomed saucepan, melt the butter, cocoa and Coca Cola, heating gently. Pour into the dry ingredients, stir well with a wooden spoon, then andd the liquid ingredients, beating until everything is well blended. Pour into the prepared pan and bake on the warm sheet for 40 minutes or unitl a cake tester comes out clean. Leave to stand 15 minutes in the pan before unmolding, then unclip, unwrap and turn out onto a wire rack, making sure you’ve got a newspaper underneath to catch icing that drips through. Sift the confectioners sugar and set aside. In a heavy bottomed saucepan, combine the butter, Coca Cola and cocoa and stire over low heat unitl the butter has melted. Remove from heat, add the vanilla, and spoon in the sifted sugar, beasing as you do, until there is a good, spreadable but still runny, icing. Pour the icing over the cake while it is still warm and leave to cool before transferring to a serving platter
