Sift together maida,cocoa powder,baking powder and baking soda.
Add maida mix to the milkmaid-butter mixture alternating with cola till maida and cola are finished.
Pour into the greased baking tin and bake for 30-40 minutes or do the toothpick test....i.e : insert a toothpick and make sure it comes out clean.

with the help of a hand blender beat butter (at room temperature) wid icing sugar...add milk accordingly....beat till it forms soft peaks...
i added 1 tablespoon cocoa powder for the chocolaty look !



 

For assembling the cake


Cut the cake into 3-4 layers horizontally [I cut it into 3 layers]
Keep one layer of the cake on the serving plate.
Now spread 2-3 tablespoons of icing on top of the cake.
Repeat with other layers.
Decorate the top with chocolate shavings & dairymilk shots.
