1 T. margarine
1 T. flour
One package { 2 layer size } white cake mix { plus ingredients to make
the cake ~ listed on the box }
One package { 4 serving size } JELL-O gelatin, any red flavor
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water
3 1/2 cups { 8 ounce container } Cool Whip whipped topping, thawed
1 pint strawberries, washed and sliced
1 cup blueberries, washed
1 cup Kraft miniature marshmallows
Grease 13 x 9 pan with margarine and dust lightly with flour.
Prepare and cook cake mix according to package directions. Cool cake
for fifteen minutes.
Use large fork to make holes in the cake about every 1/2 inch.
Pour gelatin into mixing bowl. Add the cup of boiling water and use
scraper to thoroughly mix it until the gelatin is completely
dissolved, add the 1/2 cup cold water, stir. Use the measuring cup to scoop out the gelatin and pour it
over the cake. { It will run down into the holes, making the cake have
pretty red stripes. }
Put the cake into the refrigerator and let it chill for 3 to 4
hours. Use this time to cover your tray with aluminum foil if you wish.
Once the cake is on the tray, you can decorate the sides of tray with
star stickers.
Put about one inch of warm water in the kitchen sink. Take pan out
of refrigerator and dip just the bottom { don't let the water come up
over the sides } into the water for about ten seconds. Put the large
tray on top of the cake and hold on tightly! Turn the cake over
so that the tray is on bottom and the pan is on top. Take the pan off.
The cake should be resting on the tray.
Topping. Spread
Cool ~ Whip over the top and the sides. Arrange the
strawberries, blueberries, and marshmallows on the cake so that it
looks like a flag. { You should have rows of red and white stripes and
the blue "background" of blueberries in the upper left hand
corner. }
Enjoy your very own Flag Cake Recipe! All cake variations taste good.
Put cake into the refrigerator until you are ready to serve it!
