2 cups Idahoan(R) Boxed Original Mashed Potatoes, dry
1 stick unsalted butter
8 ounces Coca-Cola(R) (or Guinness(R) for an adult cake)
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 3/4 cups superfine sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
2 medium eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
Frosting:
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1/3 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup powdered sugar

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat the sides and bottom of spring form pan with nonstick cooking spray.
2
Melt stick of butter in a large, wide sauce pan.
3
Add cola, cocoa powder and superfine sugar and whisk until smooth. Remove from heat.
4
Whisk sour cream, eggs and vanilla thoroughly until almost a batter-like consistency and add slowly into the slightly cooled butter mixture.
5
Add dry Original Mashed Potato flakes and baking soda. Stir thoroughly. The batter will have a slightly grainy appearance but don't be concerned.
6
Pour into spring form pan and bake for 45 minutes to an hour. Test center of cake with a wooden toothpick (cake is done when the toothpick comes out clean).
7
Cool and remove from spring form pan. Note: This is a very dark and dense cake.
8
Frosting: The cream cheese should be at room temperature. Add cream and powdered sugar and mix in a food processor or with a large whisk. Adjust powdered sugar and cream to ensure a nicely thick frosting that is still spreadable.
9
Frost just the top of the cake once it's unmolded and serve chilled. This cake is even better the next day!
