The Best Rum & Coke Cakes

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE CAKE

• Cooking spray
• 1 box Devil's Food cake mix
• 1/2 c. canola oil
• 3 large eggs
• 1 c. Coca-Cola

FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING

• 6 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 6 tbsp. butter, softened
• 1 1/2 c. powdered sugar
• 3 3/4 c. heavy cream, cold
• 3 tbsp. gold rum
• 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• Pinch of kosher salt
• Caramel, for drizzling
• Gold rum nips, for serving

DIRECTIONS

1. Make cake: Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9"-x-13" baking pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cake mix, oil, and eggs until smooth and combined. Slowly whisk in Coke until fully combined. Pour batter into prepared pan.
3. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, 25 minutes. Let cool completely, then cut cake into 1" cubes.
4. Meanwhile, make frosting: In a large mixing bowl using a hand mixer, beat cream cheese, butter, and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in cream, rum, vanilla, and salt and beat until medium-stiff peaks form.
5. Place 4 cake cubes in the bottom of each serving glass, top with a dollop of rum whipped cream, and drizzle with caramel. Repeat layering until glasses are full.
6. Serve with a rum nip toppled upside-down in each glass.
