JELL-O® Dive-on-In Cake Recipe

  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 2 pkg. (4 serving size) JELL-O Brand Berry Blue Flavor Gelatin
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1 (8 ounce) tub COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed
  • 56 OREO Mini Bite Size Chocolate Sandwich Cookies
  • 6 TEDDY GRAHAMS Graham Snacks
  • 5 ring-shaped chewy fruit snacks
  • 4 bite-size fish-shaped chewy fruit snacks
  1. Prepare and bake cake mix in 13×9-inch baking pan as directed on package. Cool completely. Invert cake onto large platter; remove pan. Using a serrated knife, cut and scoop out a shallow rectangle from center of cake, leaving a 2-inch border of cake on all sides and a thin layer of cake on the bottom. Reserve removed cake for snacking or other use.
  2. Stir boiling water into dry gelatin mix in large bowl at least 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in cold water. Refrigerate 1-1/4 hours or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). (Or, see Tip below for quicker set method.) Pour thickened gelatin into center of cake. Refrigerate 3 hours or until set.
  3. Frost borders of cake with whipped topping. Decorate with remaining ingredients as desired to resemble a swimming pool. Store leftover cake in refrigerator.
