How to Make Brats Dr Pepper Cake
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 (15.25 ounce) box German chocolate cake mix, 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix, and 1 cup granulated sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined.
- Add 4 large eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Gradually add 1 (2-liter) bottle Dr Pepper soda, mixing until just combined. (Note: for other variations, use 2 liters of your chosen soda).
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto wire racks to cool completely.
- **Frosting:** In a separate bowl, beat together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 3 cups powdered sugar, 1/2 cup Dr Pepper (or your chosen soda), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until light and fluffy. Add more powdered sugar if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once cakes are completely cool, frost the layers and enjoy!
