Xmas Cake
Xmas Cake Submitted by Sheila
Just in time for next Xmas!!!
Make a Vanilla Cake Mix according to package instructions in a 9x13 pan.
While it's baking:
Mix one pkg. cherry (or other 'red') jello with 3/4 cups boiling water till disolved, add 1/2 cup cold water and set aside.
Do the same with one pkg. Lime flavor jello.
When cake is done, poke holes with a chopstick, about 3/4 of the way thru. (about every 1 to 1 and 1/2 inches apart)
For the next step I used a baby medicine syringe ( hmmm wonder where I got that !)
Using one flavor at a time, squirt jello into alternating holes until each is used up.( Don't worry about the 'holy' look....they disappear!
Cover and place in refrigerator for a couple of hours.
Frost with prepackaged Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting.
I reserved a bit, tinted some red and some green and used it to pipe "poinsettias in the corners.
Cover and store in fridge until ready to serve.
This was so easy and so pretty and so Good!
Slices have red and green vertical ribbons of chosen flavors.
Idea ***** use Red and Blue colored jello for 4th of July!!
