Directions: |
Directions:Heat oven to 350°. Grease and flour an 8" X 8" baking pan. Mix all ingredients into a large bowl. Blend well. Beat another 3 minutes. Pour into the pan and bake for 35 - 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool 15 minutes.
While cake is cooling dissolve 1 package of Jell-O with 1 cup boiling water. Poke holes all over the cake with a fork. Pour Jell-O over the cake. Chill at least 4 hours. (Note: Cake doubles well for a 9" X 13" pan. Then it is your choice if you want to double Jell-O as well. One box will still work -- it will just have less red, blue, green (whatever color you picked) streaks running through it. It still tastes great! Or you could use two different kinds of Jell-O for a truly multi-colored effect.) |

Personal
Notes: This is a good cake for kids to learn on since there are no special instructions. From "A Little Basic Cookbook" -- for missionaries in Kenya.
