How to Make Strawberry Jello Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, prepare your cake mix according to package directions, using eggs and vegetable oil.
  3. Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  4. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  5. While the cake is cooling slightly, prepare the jello: In a medium bowl, combine 3 oz (1 package) of strawberry jello with 1 cup of boiling water.
  6. Stir until the jello is completely dissolved.
  7. Gently poke holes all over the warm cake using a fork or toothpick. This allows the jello to penetrate and create extra moisture.
  8. Slowly pour the dissolved jello mixture evenly over the warm cake.
  9. Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the jello to set completely.
  10. Before serving, top with whipped cream (approximately 8 oz container) and slice into squares. Enjoy!
