Scale
Cupcakes:
- 1 box cake mix (any flavor)
- 1 can (12 ounces) soda (complementary flavor, such as cola with chocolate cake or lemon-lime with vanilla or strawberry cake)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry cake mix with the can of soda. Stir until fully combined and smooth—do not add eggs, oil, or water.
- Fill and Bake: Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with the batter. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Let cupcakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Frost or serve plain as desired.
Notes
- This recipe works best with full-sugar soda for proper texture.
- For a lighter version, use diet soda, but note the cupcakes may be slightly softer.
- Mix and match cake and soda flavors for fun variations.
