Ingredients

    Preheat oven @ 350
    Grease and flour 9x13 pan

    2c whole wheat flour

    1c sugar

    1c sugar sub

    Combine sugar and flour in large bowl

    1 1/2 c mini marshmallows

    1c lemon-lime soda

    Combine marshmallows and soda in a sauce pan. Heat until marshmallows are melted and mixture is boiling. Add applesauce and stir. Fold this mixture into the flour and sugar mixture.

    Gently fold this mixture into the large bowl until batter is mixed.
    Add batter to a greased and floured 9x13in pan and bake for 25-35 minutes using a cake test to see if done.

    In a saucepan heat up 3/4 stick of margarine, 6 tablespoons of lemon-lime soda, 2tsp lemon peel, lime juice and peel until boiling. Stir in powdered sugar until thoroughly incorporated. use this glaze* over the warm cake.
    *There will be quite a bit of extra glaze that will not be used so nutritional values will be lower if less glaze is used--I used this amount to glaze 2 cakes
