Amazing Chocolate Diet Cola Cake With Just 2 Ingredients
There is no end to the different kinds of chocolate cakes you can make, but this one has to be the craziest: Chocolate cake made with diet soda. All you do is pour diet cola into boxed cake mix and ta-da! CAKE. I guess all that carbonation makes the cake rise?
It just sounds too easy not to try at least once! For the sake of science, of course. And while the point of this cake is that it's lower in sugar and calories (legend has it this recipe originated with Weight Watchers), I'm sure if you used regular cola it would still work the same, just be super sweet. Check out this crazy-easy recipe.

I'm sorry but that's not "just two ingredients". You do you realize there are *several* ingredients in both the boxed cake and soda, don't you?

This substitution works great. We use this recipe (and will substitute Diet 7Up for light colored cakes) since my son is allergic to eggs.

So you use the soda with no eggs or butter?

Yes. You just put the cake mix in a bowl and add the can of soda (and nothing else) mix it up and then bake according to the directions on the cake mix. Its really simple and delicious. :)

I like using a lemon/lime selzter water with a white or yellow cake mix to make a nice light summer cake. I just use 12oz of fizzy water for most my cakes/cupcakes I make like this and rarely use actual diet soda. Cherry seltzer is a good fit for chocolate cakes.

This is awesome. My friend made me one that was a box of the "Cherry Chip" cake mix & a can of diet cherry 7 up. then she uses the fat-free or low fat cool whip on top. Can you say YUM?
