Ingredients

1 package (18-1/4 ounces) devil's food cake mix

3 eggs

1-1/3 cups cola

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 tablespoon orange extract

CHOCOLATE-COVERED STRAWBERRIES:

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1 teaspoon shortening

12 fresh strawberries

FROSTING:

1/2 cup butter, softened

3-3/4 cups confectioners' sugar

3 tablespoons instant chocolate drink mix

1/4 cup cola

1/2 teaspoon orange extract

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, cola, oil and extract. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds; beat on medium for 2 minutes. Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.

In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Wash strawberries and pat dry. Dip each strawberry into chocolate; allow excess to drip off. Place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet; refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.

In a small mixing bowl, combine the frosting ingredients; beat until smooth. Frost cake. Garnish each serving with a chocolate-covered strawberry. Yield: 12 servings. Editor's Note: Diet cola is not recommended for this recipe.
