Gelatin Poke Cake 
a la Kraft recipes

1 pkg white cake mix recipe
1 cup boiling water
1 3oz pkg Jello gelatin, any flavor
1/2 c cold water
whipped cream or cool whip for topping

prepare cake mix according to instructions. bake in 9x13 pan and let cool for about 10 minutes. poke holes in cake with a large fork in 1/2 intervals.

add boiling water to Jello, stirring about 2 minutes, or until completely dissolved. add cold water and mix well. pour mixture over the whole cake, then let chill for 2-3 hours. frost with whipped cream and chill for another hour.

this cake has endless variations! you could use strawberry Jello and add fresh berries on top too.  this is a great summer treat since it is so cold and light.
