CHOCOLATE PEPSI CAKE
I am a fan of soda cakes anyway, so I thought it would be fun to make one with a few new twists. Applesauce replaces half of the fat in the cake, while ketchup and maple syrup add a nice kick to a delicious cake. The English Toffee pieces add a wonderful texture and crunch. Very easy to make and tastes just as delicious (if not more so!) the next day.

Steps:
- Pour cake mix in large mixing bowl. Melt butter and add cocoa powder. Mix until smooth. Add applesauce, ketchup, vanilla extract and Pepsi Cola to cocoa mixture. Blend well. Pour mixture into cake and stir by hand until batter is a liquid consistency (there will be small lumps). Mix buttermilk and baking soda together in a small bowl. Add beaten eggs to buttermilk mixture. Pour buttermilk and eggs into the cake batter and blend well. Fold mini marshmallows into batter. Pour cake batter into a greased 13" x 9" baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 40-45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Cool cake on a wire rack for about 15 minutes.
- While cake is cooling make your icing. Melt butter in medium saucepan. Add cocoa powder and stir until mixture is smooth. Add Pepsi Cola, vanilla extract, maple syrup and ketchup. Bring to a slow boil over medium-low heat, stirring constantly. When mixture reaches a boil, remove from heat and add powdered sugar until desired consistency is achieved. Fold in English Toffee pieces. Icing will be a little bit runny at this point. Pour over cake and spread out evenly to coat. Let cake stand for at least 30 minutes before.
- Prep Time: Cake - 10 minutes.
- Icing 5 minutes.
- Cook time: Cake - 40-45 minutes.
- Icing - 10 minutes.
PEPSI MAX CHOCOLATE CAKE
By using a diet softdrink as the wet ingredients in the cake, you cut a lot of calories! It gives you a very moist, yummy cake. I like to make this cake in mini-muffin cups to have ready-to-go servings on hand when I want a sweet treat.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray mini-muffin cups with non-stick spray.
- 2. Mix all ingredients on medium speed until well blended.
- 3. Use a small ice-cream type scoop to fill muffin cups. This makes 48 cupcakes.
- 4. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until center of cupcakes is done.
- 5. These are excellent served with a small dollop of whipped cream and a couple slices of banana! Yum!
Tips:
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting the recipe. This will help the batter mix more evenly and produce a smoother cake.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help the cake rise evenly and prevent it from sinking in the middle.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from melting.
- If you are using a boxed cake mix, follow the directions on the box for baking the cake. However, you can add Pepsi and chocolate chips to the batter for a more flavorful cake.
Conclusion:
The Chocolate Pepsi Cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake has a moist and fluffy texture, and the Pepsi and chocolate chips add a unique and delicious flavor. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
