I’m sorry about that. The fact is that you don’t need a recipe or a post to make this “2 ingredient no-calorie dessert.” All you need is to buy a box of Angel Food Cake Mix to achieve the same end result.

4 creamsicles

The Angel Food Cake Mix called for water as ingredient #2, I used diet orange soda to make this a Creamsicle Angel Food Cake.

When we were kids and we’d hear the music from the ice cream truck, playing from a block or two away… best moment of our lives!  And the tart orange with the creamy vanilla of the Creamsicle was like heaven on earth on a hot Arizona summer day.

That is what inspired this cake on a hot Arizona summer day last weekend.
