Preheat the oven to 350
Grease and flour a 9x13 pan
Using a hand mixer, combine the sugar, eggs, vanilla, butter and milk, blend until smooth
Add the flour, baking soda and cocoa powder. Mix well. (We do not use a two bowl method
because we don’t like the extra dirty dishes! It comes out the same every time!)
Lastly, stir in the rum and coke, mix well.
Pour into the greased pan, tap the pan on the counter a few times to remove air bubbles.
Bake for 40 minutes or until a knife (toothpick, your choice) comes out clean when inserted in
the middle.
