For an extra layer of flavor, try using a premium cola with a distinctive taste. Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for achieving a smooth, lump-free icing. Toasting the walnuts enhances their flavor and adds a pleasant crunch to the icing. Spread the chopped walnuts on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden. If the icing becomes too thick, add a tablespoon of cola-flavored beverage at a time until you reach the desired consistency. This icing is best used immediately while it's still warm and pourable. However, you can store leftover icing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before using.
