Directions
Mix all the dry ingredients together.
Beat the eggs well; add sugar, oil, ¾ cup cola, and vanilla and beat well.
Stir in the dry ingredients until smooth, then add the carrots, nuts and coconut.
Mix well.
Bake in a greased and lightly floured 13 x 9 pan in a preheated 350℉ (180℃) F oven for 40 to 50 minutes, until cake tests done.
Remove from oven and prick hot cake all over with a fork, then pour the cola syrup slowly, evenly over the top.
Serve warm or room temperature with lightly sweetened-vanilla flavored whipped cream.
Coca-Cola Syrup: Combine sugar, cocoa, cola, butter and corn syrup in saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Boil, stirring, until thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes.
Add vanilla extract.
Remove from heat and pour, hot, over hot cake.
