The clever folks at Mind Over Munch have such a great idea: the two ingredient cake…all you need is cake and soda! I love the simplicity of two ingredients plus it’s a fun way to lighten up a boxed cake mix.
Ingredients for Cake Mix and Soda
- 1 box cake mix
- 12 oz carbonated water
Directions for Cake Mix and Soda
- In a large mixing bowl, add your cake mix and carbonated water
- Mix to combine
- In a large baking pan (or two small ones for “layers”) pour in your cake mix.
- Bake at 325ºF for about 10 minutes.
- Remove and let cool.
- Frost your bottom layer cake, then place the second layer cake on top and frost completely with icing of choice!
- Enjoy!
