Recipe Introduction

Remember those old-fashioned Creamsicles we grew up with? This cake takes you right back to those days!

List of Ingredients

**This recipe is featured in the March/April 2001 edition of "Taste of Home's Quick Cooking on page 14-15!" This dessert reminds me of the frozen Creamsicles I enjoyed as a child!

1 package (18-1/4oz.) lemon cake mix
1 envelope unsweetened orange Kool-Aid
3 eggs
1 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 packages (3 oz. each) orange gelatin, divided
1 cup boiling water
1 cup cold water
1/2 cup cold milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 package (3.4 oz.) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 carton (8oz.) frozen whipped topping, thawed



Recipe

In a mixing bowl, combine cake and drink mixes, eggs, 1 cup water and oil. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour into an ungreased 13-in. X 9-in. X 2-in. baking pan. Bake at 350* for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Using a meat fork, poke holes in top of cake. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, dissolve one package of gelatin in boiling water. Stir in cold water. Pour over top of cake. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. In a mixing bowl, combine milk, vanilla, pudding mix and remaining gelatin; beat on low for 2 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes; fold in whipped topping. Frost cake. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 12-15 servings.
