Ingredients
• 1 box (15.25 oz) white or yellow cake mix (plus ingredients listed on box: eggs, oil, water)
• 1 package (3 oz) raspberry gelatin (like Jell-O)
• 1 cup boiling water
• ½ cup cold water
• 1 tub (8 oz) Cool Whip or homemade whipped cream (thawed if frozen)
• Fresh raspberries (for topping, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Prepare cake batter according to package directions. Pour into the pan and bake as directed (about 25–30 minutes). Let cool completely.
- Use the end of a wooden spoon or chopstick to poke holes all over the cooled cake.
- In a bowl, dissolve raspberry gelatin in boiling water. Stir in cold water. Pour evenly over the cake, letting it seep into the holes.
- Chill at least 2 hours (or overnight) to set.
- Before serving: Spread with whipped cream and top with fresh raspberries if desired.
