Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 oz) devil's food cake mix
- 1 can (12 oz) diet cola (e.g., Diet Coke)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, combine cake mix, diet cola, eggs, applesauce, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth and well combined (about 1 minute).
- Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool cake in pan on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips
- For extra decadence, dust with powdered sugar or top with a dollop of light whipped cream.
- Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- You can substitute any flavor of diet cola; cherry or vanilla varieties add a nice twist.
