Pastel Marble Cake

What a fun way for the kids to help make a colorful Easter (or anytime Spring) cake!  Be creative & customize the colors to your family!

1 white cake mix
1 pkg (4-serving) Jello, any flavor
1 (8oz) tub whipped topping (like cool whip)

Prepare 2-layer size white cake mix as directed on pkg.  Divide batter in half. 
Stir 1 pkg jello mix into one half of the batter.
Alternate spoonfuls of the white & colored batter into a 13x9 pan.
Swirl with knife to marbelize.
Bake as directed on cake pkg. 
Cool completely
Frost with whipped topping (or whippped vanilla icing) & decorate!

Personally, I think it would be more fun to split that colored half into 2 colors, pouring just enough of the two different jellos to color the batter, then alternate the three colors (such as white, pink, yellow or white, blue & green!)  Again, fantastic cake for the kids to have a big helping hand in making!  Let them pick the two oclors, help mix the jello in & take turns putting in spoonfuls of the batters...
