Ok so I mixed a can of diet pepsi with a chocolate cake mix. I am very excited about this one!! I have the calories figured, but how much is a serving? Not in grams either...like how big of a piece can I have in an 8x8 pan? Thanks!!:embarassed:

    ive seen this cake... you can also do yellow cake with diet sprite or 7 up.. you know something clear not dark... i would think that you could do.. as many servings.. as on the box.. .. tell me how it tastes..i havent made it yet... but i love the fat free brownies.. you make it with a container of vanilla fat free yogurt.....

    Yeah - I think this is right, and then you just add the calories from the diet coke (divided by the # of servings on the box) (since each piece should have an equal amt of the pop mixed in it.)

    Diet coke shouldnt have any calories in it... zero on everything .. except sodium

    on the cake box, there should be cals for the mix and then cals for the cake prepared as they suggest it, you just want to use the cals for the mix. it should be around 180 cals/serving. the serving size should also be right on the box. i think when i made it, a serving was 1 / 12 of the cake, so i made sure i cut the cake into 12 equal pieces before i took it to the cookout so i knew exactly what my serving size would be, hope that all makes sense:wink:
