Ingredients
- 1 can of cream soda
- 1 box of yellow cake mix
- 1 tub of Cool Whip or whipping cream
- 1 Butterscotch syrup
Instructions
- Start by greasing a 9×13-inch cake pan to ensure that the cake doesn’t stick to the sides and bottom during baking. Use cooking spray or butter to grease the pan evenly.
- In a mixing bowl, empty the contents of the yellow cake mix. Then, pour in the can of cream soda. This unique twist replaces traditional ingredients like water, vegetable oil, unsalted butter, and eggs. The cream soda adds a delightful flavor and a hint of carbonation to the cake.
- Thoroughly combine the cake mix and cream soda until you achieve a smooth, lump-free batter. Stir well to ensure that all the dry ingredients are fully incorporated for a consistent texture.
- Pour the prepared cake batter into the greased 9×13-inch pan, spreading the mixture out evenly. If desired, you can sprinkle a handful of butterscotch chips onto the batter at this stage to enhance the butterscotch flavor.
- Refer to the instructions on the cake mix box for baking guidelines specific to a 9×13-inch pan. Preheat your oven to the recommended temperature and carefully place the cake inside. Bake it according to the provided time and temperature instructions to ensure a perfectly cooked cake. You can test it with a toothpick to be sure it is completely cooked.
- Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a cooling rack. This step is crucial as it allows the cake to be set and prevents it from crumbling when you slice it.
- Now that your cake has cooled to room temperature, it’s time to add the finishing touches. Spread a layer of Cool Whip or whipped cream over the top of the cake with a spatula, creating a smooth and creamy surface. Then, generously drizzle the cake with luscious butterscotch syrup, allowing it to cascade down the sides for an irresistible appearance and flavor.
