1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ white cake mix
1 1/4 cups lemon-lime soda
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 egg whites
1 tablespoon grated lime peel
1 box (4-serving size) Jell-O™ cherry-flavored gelatin
1 cup boiling water
1 container Betty Crocker™ Whipped fluffy white frosting
1 teaspoon grated lime peel
Maraschino cherries, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Spray bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with baking spray with flour.
