Stripe-It-Rich Cake

This section of the Jellophile is a supplement to Volume 4-A - Miscellaneous Recipes using Jell-O. Recipes that use both Jell-O gelatine and Jell-O Pudding are back in Volume 4-A.

Mandarin Orange Salad
Mixed Fruit Salad

Stripe-It-Rich Cake

1 pkg (2 layer size) cake mix or pudding-included cake mix
2 pkgs (4-serving size) JELL-O Brand Instant Pudding and Pie Filling, any complementary flavor
1 cup confectioners sugar
4 cup cold milk

Prepare cake mix as directed on package, baking in 13 x 9 pan. Remove from oven. Poke holes at once down through the cake to the pan with the round handle of a wooden spoon (or poke holes with a plastic drinking straw, using a turning motion to make large holes). Holes should be at 1 inch intervals.

Only after poking holes, combine pudding mix with sugar in large bowl. Gradually stir in milk. Then beat at low speed on electric mixer for not more than 1 minute (do not overbeat). Quickly, before pudding thickens, pour about 1/2 of the thin pudding evenly over warm cake and into the holes, which makes the stripes when cut.

Allow remaining pudding to thicken slightly; then spoon over the top, swirling it to "frost" the cake. Chill at least 1 hour. Store cake in refrigerator.

From a box of jello pudding mix. See also "Classic Recipes" at the Kraft Foods Interactive Kitchen.
