Jello Sheet (Poke Cake) Cake Frosting

"This is the original recipe for the Jell-o sheet cake frosting from the 1970's. I had to search Mom's recipes to find it as the new recipe just uses Cool Whip alone. The only change it to Cool Whip from dream whip to save a step. Everyone loves it."

Reviews

  1. This frosting is the best one to use with any flavor poke cake. Way better than just frosting with plain cool-whip.
     
  2. Absolutely delicious, I just wish that it would have firmed up. Not sure if it was me, was I supposed to let the pudding firm up first then fold in the cool whip? Anyway's it did taste yummy. I will deffinately try this again and see what happens.
     
  3. This was so good! At first I thought the powdered sugar would make it too sweet but it went perfectly with the cake. So yummy! I used recipe # 221146 Strawberry Poke Cake with it. Fantastic! Thank you!
