What You Need

pkg. (2-layer size) yellow cake mix

cup boiling water

pkg. (3 oz.) JELL-O Lime Flavor Gelatin

1/2

cup cold water

oz. BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate

cups thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping

each red and green chewy fruit snack roll

pretzel sticks

JET-PUFFED Miniature Marshmallow, cut into quarters

Make It

PREPARE cake batter and bake in 13x9-inch pan as directed on package. Cool completely. Invert cake onto platter; remove pan. Use small sharp knife to cut and scoop out a shallow free-form shape from center of cake to resemble a golf green. Reserve removed cake for later use.

ADD boiling water to gelatin mix in medium bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in cold water. Refrigerate 1 hour or until slightly thickened; pour into hole in cake. Refrigerate 3 hours or until gelatin is firm.

MELT chocolate as directed on package; cool. Mix with COOL WHIP until blended; use to frost borders and sides of cake. Use small sharp knife to cut small triangle from red fruit snack roll; attach to pretzel stick to resemble golf flag. Cut green fruit roll into strips; attach to remaining pretzel sticks to resemble trees. Stick pretzels in cake. Crumble some of the removed cake; sprinkle over cake to resemble a sand trap. Roll 1 marshmallow quarter into ball; place near flag for the golf ball.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Shortcut

For a quick-set gelatin, substitute 2 cups ice cubes for the cold water. Dissolve gelatin mix in boiling water as directed, then add the ice; stir 3 to 5 min. or until gelatin begins to thicken. Remove any unmelted ice. Pour thickened gelatin into center of cake; continue as directed.

Variation

Prepare using JELL-O Lime Flavor Sugar Free Gelatin and COOL WHIP LITE Whipped Topping.

Substitute

Prepare using a white cake mix.

This was so fun to make. My son is a fisherman, so, I used the blue raspberry jello for water. Went to the Wilton outlet and got a fisherman with pole and assorted fish. Frosted it like in the recipe. He really got a kick out of it.

We love to do fun things like this, my 10 year old son suggested we try this same concept and making a swimming pool with blue jello. I'll let you know how it turns out!
