Brats Dr Pepper Cake Brat is after my neice, she loves to make this cake also. This cake is so moist it's almost more pudding than cake. Also, you can replace the Dr Pepper with different flavored soda, and the vanilla pudding and German Chocolate cake with different flavors to make other cakes. For example strawberry soda and straberry cake and pudding mix for a Strawberry Soda Cake. The pudding will thicken the batter so make sure you mix it for about 5 min on med speed. I know it seems like a lot of liquid, but that's what makes the cake so moist. I've tried it, it's great! It's done when a tooth pick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Ingredients:
1 box german chocolate cake mix |
1 (3 1/4 ounce) box vanilla instant pudding mix |
2/3 cup vegetable oil |
4 eggs |
1 (12 ounce) can dr. pepper cola |

1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine |
1/4 cup cocoa |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 lb powdered sugar |
1 cup chopped pecans or 1 cup maraschino cherry (optional) |
Directions:
1. Cake: Combine first 3 ingredients, beating with mixer until well blended.
2. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
3. Add Dr Pepper, mix well (about 5 min on med to med high speed will thicken that batter).
4. Pour batter into 3 waxed-paper-lined 9 inch cake pans.
5. (If you choose cherries, replace 1/4 cup of Dr. Pepper with 1/4 cup cherry juice).
