Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings 1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix 1 cup water 3 large eggs ⅓ cup vegetable oil 1 (3 ounce) package strawberry-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O) ½ cup boiling water 1 (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix 1 ½ cups milk 1 cup fresh blueberries, divided 2 cups frozen whipped topping, thawed 1 ½ cups sliced fresh strawberries ½ cup miniature marshmallows Directions Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan. Combine cake mix, 1 cup water, eggs, and vegetable oil in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 23 to 28 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Poke holes about 1 inch apart all over cake with a fork. Dissolve strawberry gelatin in 1/2 cup boiling water in a bowl; slowly pour over cake, letting gelatin seep into holes. Refrigerate cake until gelatin sets, about 1 hour. Transfer cake to a serving platter; cut in half horizontally. Whisk instant pudding mix with milk in a bowl until thickened, about 2 minutes; stir in 1/2 cup blueberries. Spread blueberry-pudding filling onto bottom cake layer; place top cake layer over filling. Spread whipped topping over top and sides of cake; arrange remaining 1/2 cup blueberries in a square in upper left corner of cake for stars. Arrange alternating layers of strawberries and miniature marshmallows into horizontal red and white stripes. I Made It Print 35 home cooks made it!
