01 -
Mix the white cake as the box says, double-checking your ingredient amounts.
02 -
Grease a 9x13-inch pan thoroughly. Then pour the batter in and make sure it's spread out evenly.
03 -
Cook the cake as directed on the package. Check with a toothpick—you’ll know it's done if it comes out clean.
04 -
Rest the cake for 20 minutes or until it’s warm but not hot to the touch.
05 -
Use something like a straw or the back of a wooden spoon to make holes all over the top of the cake.
06 -
Combine 1 cup of boiling water and 1/2 cup of cold water into the lime Jello. Stir completely to dissolve everything.
07 -
Do the same thing as the lime Jello for the cherry Jello using the same water amounts.
08 -
Pour the green Jello mixture carefully over one side of the cake, making sure it goes into the holes.
09 -
Pour the red Jello mixture over the remaining half of the cake, completely filling the holes too.
10 -
Place the cake in the fridge for at least 6 hours or leave it overnight, so the Jello sets.
11 -
Take the cake out of the fridge and spread the thawed Cool Whip all over the top evenly.
12 -
Sprinkle red and green bits across the top in a fun and festive way.
13 -
Keep it in the fridge until you're ready to slice. Cut into squares and clean your knife after each cut.
14 -
Put any leftovers back in the fridge with a cover to keep it fresh.
