Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 cupcakes
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar-free Coca Cola
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners to prevent sticking and make for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of sugar-free Coca Cola and 1/2 cup of vegetable oil. Whisk them together until well blended.
- Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mixture. Whisk until the eggs are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. This helps to aerate the dry ingredients and removes any lumps.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Using a ladle or a measuring cup, evenly distribute the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, you can frost the cupcakes with a sugar-free frosting of your choice or enjoy them plain. Serve and enjoy your delicious sugar-free Coca Cola cupcakes!
Tips
- Don’t Overmix: When combining the wet and dry ingredients, stir gently until just combined. Overmixing can lead to dense cupcakes, so a few lumps are perfectly fine!
- Measure Accurately: Ensure you measure your ingredients accurately, especially the flour and cocoa powder. Too much can alter the texture of your cupcakes.
- Cooling Time: Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This helps them set and prevents them from breaking apart.
- Customize Your Frosting: For a fun twist, try pairing your cupcakes with a sugar-free frosting or even a dollop of whipped cream. You can also sprinkle some cocoa powder or nuts on top for added texture.
- Check for Doneness: Keep an eye on the baking time, as oven temperatures can vary. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean when they’re ready.
- Storage: Store any leftover cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate them for a longer shelf life.
