Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box cake mix (low-fat or sugar-free)
  • 1 package jello (your favorite flavor)
  • 1 cup water (for jello preparation)
  • Whipped cream (optional, low-fat or sugar-free)
  • Fresh fruits (strawberries, blueberries) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven according to cake mix instructions and bake the cake in a rectangular baking pan. Allow it to cool completely, about 30-45 minutes.
  2. Prepare the jello by mixing it with boiling water until dissolved, then add cold water as per package instructions and let it thicken for 10-15 minutes.
  3. Poke holes in the cooled cake with a fork to allow the jello to seep in.
  4. Pour the prepared jello over the cake, ensuring it fills the holes. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.
  5. Before serving, top with whipped cream and fresh fruits, slice into squares, and enjoy!

Notes

You can incorporate fruit pieces into the jello before it sets for added flavor and visual appeal.
