Have you ever heard of a Dirty Diet Coke? It’s a thing, you know!?! In case you aren’t’ familiar with the wonderful Dirty DIet Coke, it is a Diet Coke with coconut syrup and lime. I heard about it from my friends that live in Utah. Swig N’ Sweets is famous for their Dirty Diet Cokes (and their cookies are dang good too!). I love Diet Coke, and a Dirty Diet Coke is a fun way to jazz up my favorite beverage.

Coca-Cola Cake is one of our favorite desserts. Chocolate cake made with Coke – so good! I was thinking of desserts for our Memorial Day cookout and thought why not make a Dirty Diet Coke Cake!?!?! OMG! Y’all, this is SO good!!! We both ate WAY too much of this cake. Chocolate cake and Diet Coke – I can’t think of many things better in this world!

I used coconut extract in the cake. I didn’t think most people would have coconut syrup in their pantry, so I used the extract. It worked great. I used fresh lime juice and zested the limes. Perfect!!

You can make this cake a day in advance and store it in an air-tight container until you are ready to serve. I hope y’all enjoy it as much as we did!!
