How to Make Diet Soda Cake Or Cupcakes With Frosting

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line 24 cupcake tins.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the diet soda, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar substitute, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans or cupcake tins.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes for cakes, or 18-20 minutes for cupcakes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cakes or cupcakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once cooled, frost with the Dreamy Frosting (recipe below).
  9. Store in the refrigerator, especially if frosted. Freezes beautifully!
