All you need to make a soda cake is a box of your favorite cake mix and a 12oz. can of any flavored diet soda! (If you don’t have any cans, just measure out 12oz.) This is one of the EASIEST cake recipes I know of! And although it’s hard to call cake or soda “healthy”, it’s definitely a better option than the full eggs & oil recipe!

Directions:
- Pour cake mix into large mixing bowl.
- Dump 12oz. can of diet soda in with cake mix.

Vanilla Buttercream Frosting
– 1/2 cup butter, softened
– 3 cups confectioners sugar
– 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
– 2 to 3 tbsp milk
Cream together butter and sugar. Add vanilla and 1 tbsp. milk. Continue to add milk until desired consistency is achieved. (I ended up using almost 3 tbsp).
