Ingredients

  • 1 (18 ounce) package pillsbury classic white cake mix
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 (1/4 ounce) envelope lemon-lime Kool-Aid
  • 1 (3 ounce) box lime Jell-O gelatin
  • 1 (12 ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
  • 1 cup cold milk
  • 1 (3 ounce) box cherry Jell-O
  • 1 (3 ounce) box vanilla instant pudding mix

Instructions

  1. Combine cake mix with oil, water, eggs and dry Kool-Aid; mix on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  2. Pour cake batter into a 9 X 13 pan and bake at 325 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes.
  3. Heat limeade concentrate in microwave about 2 minutes until hot; dissolve lime Jello in limeade. Using chopsticks or wooden skewers, poke a LOT of holes all over the still-warm cake. Slowly pour the limeade-jello mixture over the cake, allowing the cake to absorb the liquid. Cover and chill 2 to 3 hours, until cake is cold.
