Original Recipe Yield 1 -13x9 inch cake
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix
  • 1 (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 (3 ounce) package fruit flavored gelatin mix
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1 cup ice water

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 9x13 inch baking pan.
