My Gramma has made this recipe for years and years. It's super simple and just so good. Nice and light. Perfect as a side item to take to a potluck.

Ingredients:
  • 1 bag miniature marshmallows
  • 1 (28 oz) can crushed pineapple UNDRAINED
  • 1 tub cool whip
Directions:
  1. Mix marshmallows and pineapple together in large bowl.
  2. Refrigerate until the marshmallows have absorbed the pineapple juice, preferably overnight.
  3. Mix in cool whip and serve.
  4. Can be refrigerate for a couple of hours after mixing in cool whip, but it's not necessary.

Fruity JELL-O Cake

Fruity JELL-O

2 cups chopped strawberries
1 can (20 oz.) crushed pineapple, drained
1 pkg. (8-serving size) or 2 pkg. (4-serving size each) JELL-O Strawberry Flavor Gelatin
3 cups JET-PUFFED Miniature Marshmallows
1 pkg. (2-layer size) white cake mix Cake


PREHEAT oven to 350°F. Spread strawberries evenly onto bottom of 13x9-inch baking pan; top with pineapple. Sprinkle with dry gelatin mix; top with marshmallows. Set aside.

PREPARE cake batter as directed on package, omitting the oil. Pour evenly over marshmallows.

BAKE 50 to 55 min. or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 15 min. before serving. Store leftover cake in refrigerator.

**I made this when we went to a friend's house for a BBQ. I was super curious to how it would come out and what the texture of the cake would be like. It actually came out and you couldn't even tell there was marshmallows in it. It was super yummy topped with whipped cream.
