Mix one chocolate cake mix, any brand and one can diet Pepsi. Stir as usual, bake as usual. Very moist and light.
If using a white cake mix, use Diet 7-UP.

wow, now thats a new one and worth a try as the regular cake mixes call for eggs, oil/butter and such. Two ingredients only would be wonderful. I will try after this Saturday (my shopping day) and repost a review on it. Thanks for sharing
Another very good 2 ingredient cake: one box of angel food cake mix and one 20 oz can of crushed pineapple. Combine and cook per directions on cake box.
Do you mix the other ingredients as well, or not?
It might be low fat, but it is not low sugar. And sugar is a far bigger problem than fat.

Mix the soda in the cake mix and bake at regular time as instructed on box.

Oh, this is very interesting! How does the cake turn out? I've had pancakes made with pop, and they are light and delicious. Is this cake the same? Does it pick up flavor from the pop?
Sounds easy and i would like to try it. What do you frost it with? Thanks.
The only one I have made is with 7-up because that is what I had on hand. I used a lemon cake mix. I think you could frost it with whatever type frosting you like.
I often make a cake mix with just one can of evaporated milk plus the cake mix. Got to be better for you than oil & eggs. Cost wise I'm sure it evens out. Try a Banana UpsidenDown cake with this!
