A visually stunning cake that combines a fluffy white cake base with vibrant layers of colorful jello, perfect for summer gatherings and celebrations.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 box (15.25 oz) white cake mix
3 large eggs
1 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 cups boiling water (divided)
3 (3 oz) packages of fruit-flavored jello (any combination of colors)
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Mix on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Once cooled, poke holes all over the top of the cake with the handle of a wooden spoon.
In a separate bowl, dissolve each jello flavor in 1 cup of boiling water. Let cool slightly.
Slowly pour each jello mixture over the cake, allowing it to seep into the holes. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
In a chilled mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Spread the whipped cream topping evenly over the cake. Serve and enjoy!
