A festive and colorful Jello poke cake perfect for Christmas celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box white cake mix (plus eggs, water, and oil as directed on box)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • ½ (3-ounce) box strawberry Jello gelatin
  • ½ (3-ounce) box lime Jello gelatin
  • 1 cup boiling water (divided)
  • 1 (8-ounce) tub Cool Whip whipped topping, thawed
  • Holiday sprinkles for decoration

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mix white cake mix, eggs, water, and oil (or butter) until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
  3. Bake for 28–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes.
  4. Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes evenly over the cake, about 1 inch apart, without going through the bottom.
  5. In two small bowls, dissolve the strawberry and lime Jello separately, each in ½ cup of boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved.
  6. Spoon both gelatin mixtures over the cake, alternating red and green sections for a festive look.
  7. Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours, or until the Jello is fully set and the cake is cold.
  8. Spread the thawed Cool Whip evenly over the chilled cake and decorate with holiday sprinkles.
  9. Slice, serve, and enjoy your vibrant, refreshing Christmas dessert!

Notes

  • Ensure the cake is completely cooled before adding Jello to avoid melting.
  • Experiment with different Jello flavors for variation.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
