    Looks delicious! You can also use soda with most box cake mixes. Just add one can of soda to your mix and bake, it comes out amazingly. It's an old weight watchers trick, I hear.

    I don't like chocolate, but this looks like a delicious treat to make for my boyfriend. I bet it would also be delicious for white cake mix. =)

    would the liquid (soda) need to be reduced to 1/4 cup - the water that is called for in this recipe - I think the pie filling and soda would make the batter too runny...but not sure ...thoughts????

    Yummy! This is very similar to the Hungry Girl chocolate cupcakes made with a can of pumpkin.
    Just a box of devil's food cake mix combined with a regular size can of pumpkin. Here's the link:
    http://www.hungry-girl.com/newsletters/raw/367



    Check out these ROCKIN' recipes from Hungry Girl!


    The Devil Made Me Chew It
    Yum Yum Brownie Muffins


    (1 Muffin, or 3 minis - 181 calories, 3.5g fat, 37g carbs, 2g fiber, 2g protein -- PointsPlus® value 5*)

    This super-simple 2-ingredient recipe is a Weight Watchers Fave!

    1 box devil's food cake mix
    1 can solid pack pumpkin (15 oz.)

    Directions:
    Mix the two ingredients together. Don't add anything else that may be mentioned on the box, such as eggs, oil, or water. The mixture will be very thick and you will be tempted to add in other things to make the batter smoother. DO NOT DO THIS AS IT WILL RUIN EVERYTHING! Place batter into muffin tins (or mini muffin tins) lined with paper, or sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Makes 12 regular or 36 mini muffins.
