Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by greasing or lining it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the white cake mix, eggs, oil, and water according to the package instructions. Mix on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth.
- Divide the batter into 3–4 smaller bowls and add gel food coloring to each, stirring gently to achieve desired pastel shades.
- Spoon the colored batters into the prepared baking dish, alternating colors. Gently swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect. Bake for 28–32 minutes.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15–20 minutes, then poke holes about an inch apart using a wooden spoon handle.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until thickened. Pour this over the cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes.
- Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
- Spread a layer of Cool Whip over the chilled cake and get creative with your presentation.
- If desired, add Easter-themed sprinkles or fresh fruit on top just before serving.
- Serve the cake cold by slicing it into squares and enjoying the vibrant layers.
