Jell-O Poke Cake

By -
This is an oldie, but a goodie.
I always seem to pull it out of my files when the weather is warmer
as it is a light, cool, refreshing treat.
:)
SUPER easy to do!
Start by baking a 9x13 cake - yellow or white.
Then, as it cools, whip up 6oz of Jell-O, per the box instructions.
I prefer lemon or lime, but any flavor will do.
Pop that Jell-O in the fridge for a bit to start thickening.

As the cake cools, use the back of a handle to poke holes in it.
Then pour your slightly thickened Jell-O over it, aiming mostly for the holes.
"Frost" it quick with Cool Whip or Fresh Whipped Cream
Simply chill until ready to slice and serve.
Yum!
**You CAN make this slightly healthier...
Use egg whites instead of whole eggs, use Fat Free Cool Whip and Sugar Free gelatin.

We choose the middle of the road option, LOL You need:  1 package hot dog buns (8 ct) 1 package hot dogs 2 cups chili (or 1 can) 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese "fixins" That's it! You could do gluten free or whole grain wheat buns, turkey or tofu dogs, vegetarian chili, vegan or light cheese, you get the drift. We do white buns, cut them up and place in the 9x13 pan, like you see here: Then you dice up the hot dogs ...
