Jello Poke Cake
This was a favorite of
mine growing up. My mom used to make it for my birthday.
- 1 white cake
- 1 (3 oz.) package of jello
- 1 c. boiling water
- 1/2 c. cold water
- whipped topping
Prepare cake as directed in an oblong cake pan.
Cool pan 15 minutes. Poke cake with fork every 1/2 to 1 inch.
Dissolve Jello in boiling water. Add cold water. Spoon over
the cake slowly so the Jello mixture soaks into the holes.
Chill 3 to 4 hours. Top with Cool Whip.
Orange Jello Cake
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 3/4 cup oil
- 2/3 cup milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 tsp lemon extract
- 1 small pkg orange jello
Beat all ingredients together.
Bake at 350°F for one hour in a 13 x 9 pan.
Topping
- 2 cups confectioner's sugar
- 1/2 cup frozen orange juice, thawed
Just before the cake is done, mix
together the sugar and orange concentrate. While cake is still
warm, prick several times with a fork, then brush the topping
onto the cake until it all soaks in.
