Diet cake or diet cake pops - 2 points per pop

I tried this and it's a wonderful cake recipe for almost no points. This is another safe and great tasting batter, just like the brownies. Points may vary based on cake mix. You can add 1-2 egg whites (optional) I didn't use the eggs, but some people suggest that eggs are a great binder and make the cake rise more and make it fluffier. I didn't have a problem with that. I have a cake pop pan and it filled the domes and  even came out the holes at the top.. You could use different combinations of cake and soda or sparkling water, just don't use NutraSweet. I've heard it's dangerous if cooked. I also heard that dark cola and light colored cakes don't taste good together. I'll post the ingredients I used, but think of all the possible variations. It boggles the mind, and with 3 birthdays coming over the next 4 months, I'll be trying several. I'll try to remember to post comments about what worked and what didn't.

I love diet soda cakes :) I did yellow cake with sprite zero poked holes in it and poured a little s.f. strawberry jello over it and sat in the fridge for 4 hours then put some strawberries on it and s.f. whipped cream(well not for me i dont care for whipped cream). 3PP for 1 cupcake w/ whipped cream 2PP for one cupcake with just strawberries. Its like a mini strawberry shortcake. soooooo gooood lol
