    It wasn't as hard as I thought to make it. I made a heck of amess though and used more cool whip than it called for. although my chocoalate chip bar cookies came out tasting like peanut butter bars for some reason but at least they're eatable and soft. Have no clue what happened there.

    Sure. I thought it needed more filling. I'd like a little more jello and less fruit. I made my own cake instead of a store bought andused a little more cool whip for the icing.

    Take 1 prepared (10 oz.) angel food cake, 1/2 cup boiling water, 1-1/2 cups thawed Cool Whip Whipped Topping and mix & match your recipe from these options...

    Strawberry jello - 1 cup chopped strawberries, divided
    Orange jello- 1 can (11 oz.) mandarin orange segments, drained, divided
    Lemon jello - 1 cup blueberries, divided
    Lime jello- 1 cup raspberries, divided

    Then follow our 3 simple steps:

    PLACE cake on serving plate. Cut 3/4-inch-thick horizontal slice from top of cake using a serrated knife; set aside. With small knife, cut 1-inch wide and 1-inch deep tunnel inside center of cake; being careful not to cut through. Remove and save cutout for snack. (I mixed some of the fuit and the jello cool whip mix with the cutout pieces.)

    STIR boiling water into 1 pkg. (4-serving size) dry Jell-O Brand Gelatin in bowl 2 min. until dissolved. Add enough cold water to 1/2 cup ice to measure 3/4 cup; stir into gelatin until completely melted. Remove 1/2 cup of the gelatin mixture and place in separate medium bowl. Add whipped topping; stir with wire whisk until well blended. Refrigerate 10 to 15 min. or until thick enough to spread.

    MEANWHILE, refrigerate remaining plain gelatin 5 to 10 min. or until thickened. Stir in 3/4 cup of the fruit; spoon into tunnel of cake. Replace top of cake. Frost cake with reserved thickened whipped topping and gelatin mixture. Garnish top with remaining fruit.
