Festive JELL-O Poke Cake

rating
I make this cake every Easter and it's one recipe my family requests each year. I use lemon and lime jello powders. There isn't a crumb left once it's taken out of the fridge.

Easy and quick to do. Its one that I use a fair amount. Another variation on this I use for halloween parties - 1 box chocolate cake mix baked in 13 x 9 pan. Poke holes in cake and pour prepared instant Jello Chocolate Pudding mix over cake (do not use jelly). Top with "gummy worms" or other insect-like candies. Top this with 1 300g box of crushed chocolate cookies wafers. Kids love this and think they're eating dirt.

This is a good recipe, and I have tried some variations. I used a vanilla cake with chocolate chips once, and cherry another time. Also, i put a layer of chocolate pudding over hte cake before the whipped topping.
