Jell-o Cake

 After a crazy week at work it's always nice to come home and make something pinterest. I have lost of plans for this weekend but we'll see if they actually happen. We went to Luke Bryan last night at the out door theater at Red Rock. Awesome concert!











 Last Sunday I decided to make a cake that my mom usually makes around the holidays with green and red jell-o. Of course we had Cherry since that is the preferred flavor at the Lombardo house. With only three ingredients, plus hot & cold water....it was delicious!







1st- Bake the cake as directed. Let it cool for 15 minutes.

2nd- Poke holes with a large fork all throughout the cake. I'm OCD and wanted it to be perfect, but it doesn't matter.

3rd- Empty a 3oz jell-o (any flavor) into a mixing bowl. Add 1 c. hot water and dissolve completely. Add 1 c. cold water and mix. 

4th- Pour jello over cake and refrigerate for 3 hours. Yes, all of it!

5th- Smear a tub of cool whip on top as frosting. Lick spoon and put cake in fridge for another hour.

6th-Enjoy!

I had some for breakfast the next day....please don't judge me.
