Preparation:

Mix all the dry ingredients together. Beat the eggs well; add sugar, oil, 3/4 cup cola, and vanilla and beat well. Stir in the dry ingredients until smooth, then add the carrots, nuts and coconut. Mix well. Bake in a greased and lightly floured 13 x 9 pan in a preheated 350~F oven for 40-50 minutes, until cake tests done. Remove from oven and prick hot cake all over with a fork, then pour the cola syrup slowly, evenly over the top. Serve warm or room temperature with lightly sweetened-vanilla flavored whipped cream. Coca-Cola Syrup: Combine sugar, cocoa, cola, butter and corn syrup in saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil, stirring, until thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Add vanilla extract. Remove from heat and pour, hot, over hot cake.
