Super Easy Cake

Have you ever needed to make a cake at the last minute? Perhaps you had company coming over but nothing to serve them. Or your children tell you they need to take something to share today but its too late to throw something together. Well if you have two to three ingredients you can make a cake in just a few minutes. Just follow the instructions below.Ingredients

One box of cake mix, any flavor. I like to use the super moist ones. They seem to come out better in the microwave.

One can of diet soda, any flavor. You can use regular soda as well.

Mix the cake mix and soda together well in a large bowl.

Spray a microwavable container with Pam. Now, be careful the kind of bowl you use. First, it must be microwave safe. I don’t recommend glass containers. My mom tried to make this cake in a corningware container and it came out as hard as a rock. I use a Tupperware Heat N Serve container. This container comes in four sizes, but the 6 1/4 cup one works the best.

Pour the cake batter into the container and place the seal on it. Put it in the microwave for ten minutes. Let it set in the microwave a couple minutes and then remove the container from the microwave.

Remove the cover. Place a plate over the container and flip the container up-side-down. The cake will slide right out. Once it cools you can frost it if you would like. My husband likes to eat it as it is with some vanilla ice cream. Yummy.

My favorite mixture is chocolate cake mix and diet cherry soda.

Give this recipe a try. I think you will like it. It is so easy to make and your family will love the treat.
