MOD'S MOUNTAIN DEW CAKE (RCDC)
I wanted to make this because of my boyfriend and one of our very nice mutual friends, Doug (Mod), who are basically Mountain Dew addicts. Soda cakes perplexed me at first, but they turn out to be very yummy. Doug claimed if I started making this, he'd lock me in his basement doomed to make cakes forever and that my boyfriend would never see me again! This recipe is very Mountian Dew-yum! Nicknamed the Really Cool Dew Cake (RCDC). I don't like many other recipes of this simply because they have a lot of lemon or pineapple or coconut and it detracts from the Mountain Dew...which of course is the main point for my boys. It even has a Mountian Dew glaze.. If you'd rather ice (or do both!), that's okay too. See my Pineapple icing recipe (#187414) for that!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325. Lightly grease and flour a 10 cup Bundt pan. In a large bowl, combine cake mix and pudding mix. Add soda,oil, eggs. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour batter into prepared pan, and bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes. remove from an and let cool completely on wire rack. (I use a glaze while cake is still warm of powdered sugar and 1 tsp. of lemon juice and add milk to spreading consistency.)
Tips:
- Use a cake mix that you enjoy. There are many different brands and flavors available, so choose one that you think will taste good with the Mountain Dew soda.
- Make sure the Mountain Dew soda is cold before you add it to the cake batter. This will help to create a fizzy, light cake.
- Don't overmix the cake batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake according to the directions on the cake mix box. The baking time may vary depending on the size of the cake pan you are using.
- Let the cake cool completely before you frost it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Use a cream cheese frosting or a whipped topping to frost the cake. These frostings will pair well with the Mountain Dew flavor of the cake.
- Decorate the cake with Mountain Dew candies, sprinkles, or other decorations of your choice.
Conclusion:
Mountain Dew cake is a fun and easy cake to make that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover Mountain Dew soda, and it is sure to be a hit with family and friends.
