Ingredients

15 ¼ ounce box white cake mix

ingredients needed to make cake: egg whites, oil and water

3 ounce box lime Jell-O

1 cup boiling water

1/2 cup cold water

3 ⅖ ounce package instant vanilla pudding mix

1 cup cold milk

8 ounce tub whipped topping (Cool Whip)

green sprinkles (optional)

Directions

Prepare the white cake mix with the ingredients needed to make the cake: egg whites, oil and water per the directions on the back of the box for a 9x13-inch cake. Once it is done baking, place it on the counter and let it cool for 5 minutes.

Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes into the cake about 2 inches apart.

Add the lime Jell-O and boiling water to a large, heatproof bowl and whisk until the gelatin is dissolved.

Add the cold water to the bowl and whisk to combine.

Pour the Jell-O all over the cake, focusing on the holes the most. Place the cake into the fridge for 2 hours.

In a large bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding with the milk for 1 minute.

Add the whipped topping and stir to combine until there are no streaks left.

Smooth the frosting on top of the cake and place it back into the fridge for 2 hours to set up.

Garnish with sprinkles if using and serve immediately.
