Jello Poke Cake

This is a super fun, tasty, and EASY dessert.  And you can use ANY flavor of Jello you'd like.  I favor a raspberry or strawberry--and its especially good when mixed with a lemon cake mix!

Jello Poke Cake
1 box of white cake mix (or lemon!)
Oil, eggs & water for making the cake
1 small box of Jello, any flavor
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water
Cool whip for topping

Bake the cake according to package directions in a 9x13 pan.  Let it cool completely--about one hour.

Pierce the cake all over--the more the better!--with a fork. You want LOTS of holes!

In a small bowl, combine the jello and boiling water. Stir until smooth.  Add the cold water and mix well. Pour the jello mixture evenly over the top of the cake slowly--letting it sink into the cake. Run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen it, and then put the cake into the refrigerator. Chill at least two hours.  Frost it with whipped cream and serve! Be sure to refrigerate any leftovers.
