Jell-O Cake

Jazz up a white cake mix

I threw a baby shower for my friend last week. At the last minute I was afraid that I didn't have enough food prepared so I quickly mixed up a cake. 
This recipe is special to me since my grandma made it for each one of my birthday's. It's super simple, quick and always a crowd pleaser!

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray.
Prepare white cake according to box mix directions.
Pour in pan and spread batter towards outer edges to prevent a dome shape while cooking. 
Bang pan against counter a few times to allow air bubbles to rise to the top. 
Bake according to box directions.
While the cake cools slightly boil 2 cups of water.
Mix one small box of jell-o with 2 cups of boiling water until completely dissolved.
Using a fork, poke holes all over cake.
Pour dissolved jell-o all over cake.
Put cake in the refrigerator and allow jell-o to slightly set up.
Just before serving spread cool whip on top of cake.
Top with sliced strawberries if desired.

Yum!
