Ingredients

1 box yellow cake mix (and ingredients necessary to prepare the cake)

1 box lemon Jello mix

2 cups boiling water

1 tub Cool Whip

2 tbsp lemon juice

2-4 drops yellow food coloring (optional)

lemon zest (garnish)

Directions

Prepare cake in a 9x13 pan according to the directions on the box.

Poke holes with the handle of a wooden spoon and allow the cake to cool completely.

Mix the Jello mix with the boiling water and pour over the cake, letting the cake absorb it, and refrigerate until set.

Mix the lemon juice and food coloring into the Cool Whip and spread on the cake.

Sprinkle lemon zest on top as a garnish, for an extra touch of lemon.

Keep refrigerated.

My mom used to make a cake almost exactly like this when I was a kid. It was one of my favorites! I never could find the recipe to it, though, so I am so tickled to come across this! Will definately be making it out this week, so my kids can try it!

I'm worried about it being too soggy. But let's say it is not soggy, then it's a good way to have a cake be very good without the extremely fattening buttercream frosting. One can use sugar free jello and 1/2 sugar cake mix too.The cake mixes that are 50% less sugar are slightly dry. This one, would not be dry for sure! Thanks for the idea.

Generally, once you refrigerate it and the jello sets, its pretty good. Of course, it will be moister than a normal cake. But the reduced sugar ideas are a very good idea to make it even healthier!
