Equipment

1 9 x 13 baking dish It's the size I use for casseroles
1 large serving tray bigger than 9 x 13 You will place the tray on the baking dish and flip the upside down cake onto it.

Ingredients

▢ 1 box yellow cake I had a yellow cake (butter recipe) mix
▢ ⅓ cup butter for cake mix
▢ 3 large eggs for cake mix
▢ 2 cups strawberries chopped, about 1 pound
▢ 1 box strawberry jello 6 oz size

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350℉
Mix cake mix batter according to directions on the box. My cake mix needed ⅓ cup butter, 3 eggs and a cup of water.
Set aside.
Place layer of chopped strawberries onto sprayed (nonstick spray) 9 x 13 baking dish.
Sprinkle jello onto strawberries. It is the powder, straight out of the box that you are sprinkling. Do not stir.
Evenly pour and spread cake mix batter over strawberry and jello powder.
Bake for 25 - 35 minutes until toothpick comes out of batter clean. If cake is browning too quickly, place some tin foil loosly over the top.
Allow to cool for 15 minutes. Using a sharp knife, cut around the edges to release.
Place large serving tray over baking dish. Hold on tight and flip. Cake, strawberry and jello should release onto the tray.
Cut into 15 pieces and serve with ice cream.
