Five Luscious Jell-O Cake Recipes (Both Bake and No-Bake)

I love bundt cakes, don’t you? They're always so easy and look so pretty when done. But you can do more than that will Jell-O cakes.

Baking and cooking are two of my favorite things to do, and that's a good thing, as desserts are always a huge hit with my husband. I've made each of the recipes below many times. I hope you will enjoy them.

Ingredients

• 1 large carton of ricotta cheese
• 1 cup of sugared soda (pop), e.g. Coke or Sprite. (I wouldn't use flavors like orange.)

• 1/4 cup of oil
• 1 small box of raspberry jello
• 1 yellow cake mix
• 1/2 cup of cake flour

1. Spray bundt pan very well or it will stick. Bake at 350˚F.
2. Mix together cheese, soda, eggs and yoghurt after mixing well, add oil and jello mix well. Add cake mix, cake flour mix until smooth.
