Coca-Cola Easy Lowfat Cake Recipe And A Giveaway

After working all day I’m all about easy when it comes to cooking. I save meals that require more time and prep for weekends. A coworker recently told me she’d been over someone’s house and had this amazing lowfat cake that was delicious and supposedly was made with soda. When I found out I was going to be able to offer a Coca-Cola giveaway, I decided to try and find out more about the cake. I didn’t have to look far, it was right on the Coca-Cola site.

To make Easy Lowfat Cake you’ll need

• 1 box of regular or lowfat cake mix
• 1 single 12 ounce can of Diet Coke

Mix the cake mix with the diet Coke and bake according to the directions.

If you want to top it the recipe suggests either sprinkling confectioners sugar over it or making icing by combining one 8 ounce container of CoolWhip with one package of sugar free, fat free pudding mix.

It doesn’t get much easier than that!

For those that love Coca-Cola or love to try new recipes, there’s a whole section of recipes on the Coca-Cola site.

Did you know that Coca-Cola is available in aluminum bottles? I’d never seen them prior to last week. They’re really cool! The 8.5 ounce bottle is resealable (unlike a can) and feels really cold. One of the best things about the aluminum bottle is that it’s made from recycled materials, and is recyclable itself. Three varieties will be available in the aluminum bottles – classic, diet and zero. Coca-Cola is introducing them in order to offer consumers a wider selection of size options.

WIN IT!

One winner will receive a set of three Coca-Cola aluminum bottles, one of each flavor.
