Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C, and bake the white cake in a 9x13 pan according to package directions. Once baked, allow to cool completely.
In a medium-sized saucepan, warm up a cup of water. Remove from heat, and add lime JELLO mix, whisk it in then add a cup of cold water and stir to combine. Set aside.
Poke holes all over the cake using a fork or a wooden skewer, then pour the lime JELLO mixture into the holes.
Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
To make the frosting, in a large mixing bowl, combine whipped topping with white chocolate instant pudding until well combined.
Spread the frosting over the top of the cake, smoothing it out with a spatula then sprinkle with your favorite sprinkles.
Notes
Yield: This recipe will make a cake to serve between 12 and 16 people. Since the cake is quite sweet, smaller pieces might be preferred.
Cake mix: You can substitute white cake mix with lemon cake mix to make a Lemon Lime Poke Cake. Alternatively, you can bake your favorite homemade sheet cake to make this recipe. To get the vibrant green color, use a light color cake for best results.
Pudding: White chocolate pudding can be replaced with vanilla pudding mixture or sweetened condensed milk.
Jello: The flavor of Jello can be changed if you are serving it as a birthday cake or for any other special occasion.
Toppings: You can also add or omit toppings as you like. You can add slices of fresh limes, strawberries or berries to have more nutrients and color combinations. Think of red over green for the holidays season!
Juice: Add some fresh key lime juice to whipped topping and the cake mix to make a Key Lime Cake.
Whipped topping: Replace the whipped topping with buttercream frosting or cream cheese frosting to satisfy a sweet tooth.
Food coloring: You can add food coloring to make the cake fit the theme of your party.
