"I don't remember where this original recipe came from, I think it might have been an old Safeway newsletter, but I ADORE it... they're like cake/brownies (I eat them with a fork) and are great for parties!"

Very fudgy, yummy, chocolaty bars! I canÂ´t say I detected much of cola taste, but surely it wouldnÂ´t be the same without it. Keeps well in fridge for days. The marshmallows where fun on top, but might be nice mixed in the batter, as well.
