Cherry Cola Cupcakes

Super easy recipe…

Pour a can of diet cherry coke into a large mixing bowl.  Add a box of chocolate cake mix.  Add an egg white or two to help everything bind.  Mix according to box directions.  Pour into cupcake liners.  Bake for about 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees.

They’re so good you don’t even need to frost them.  I made a batch of these for work and did add a little cream cheese frosting and a maraschino cherry on top for decoration (they were the only cherries I could find in the store…weird).  The cake itself has just a hint of cherry, definitely not overpowering.

Yes, I know they’re still not “GOOD” for you.  But they’re lower cal compared to making the mix with the normal oil required, so it’s good enough for me.  I honestly like the diet soda mixes better, because they make the cake so moist (ugh I hate that word)…let’s use fluffy and light instead :) 

Check out Grin and Bake It, as this is where I got the inspiration to make these lovely cakes!
