Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix with ingredients to prepare according to package
- 1 box lemon Jell-O gelatin 3 ounce
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 pint lemon curd
- 16 ounce Cool Whip thawed
- ½ cup crushed Nilla Wafer cookies
Instructions
- Prepare yellow cake mix according to package in a 13x9 baking dish. Remove from oven and poke holes all over cake. I use a meat thermometer for this (skewer or wooden spoon handle would work too!).
- Combine gelatin with boiling water. Pour over warm cake, into poked holes.
- Refrigerate cake with plastic wrap for 4 hours, or overnight.
- Before serving, spread lemon curd over top of cake. Top with Cool Whip and crushed cookies.
- Store in refrigerator for up to 4 days. ENJOY.
Notes
- Use homemade or store bought lemon curd (found in baking aisle).
- If you'd like, you can substitute lemon pudding for the curd. After pouring your gelatin on the cake, whisk 1 box (3.4oz) instant lemon pudding mix with 2 cup milk. Pour over cake. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Top with Cool whip and cookies.
- Swap out yellow cake mix for lemon cake mix instead!
