Bake the Lemon Cake

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once the cake is out of the oven and has cooled slightly, poke holes in it using a fork or a wooden spoon. Pour the cooled jello mixture over the cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes. Refrigerate the cake for at least 3 hours, or until the jello is set.

Serve with Cool Whip

Before serving, spread the thawed Cool Whip evenly over the cake. Slice and serve, enjoying every tangy, sweet bite!
