Dive On In Cake

• 1 (18 1/4 ounce) package yellow cake mix (2-layer size)
• 3 eggs (or as called for by your cake mix)
• 1/3 cup oil (or as called for by your cake mix)
• 1 1/3 cups water (or as called for by your cake mix)
• 2 cups boiling water
• 2 (3 ounce) packages berry blue gelatin mix
• 1 cup cold water
• 1 (8 ounce) container whipped topping, thawed
• 56 mini chocolate sandwich style cookies
• 6 Teddy Grahams honey graham snacks, snacks (Teddy Bear shaped)
• 5 ring-shaped chewy fruit snacks
• 4 bite-size fish-shaped chewy fruit snacks

1. PREPARE and bake cake mix in 13x9-inch baking pan as directed on package.
2. Cool completely.
3. Invert cake onto large platter; remove pan.
4. Using a serrated knife, cut and scoop out a shallow rectangle from center of cake, leaving a 2-inch border of cake on all sides and a thin layer of cake on the bottom.
5. Reserve removed cake for snacking or other use.
6. STIR boiling water into dry gelatin mix in large bowl at least 2 minute until completely dissolved.
7. Stir in cold water.
8. Refrigerate 1-1/4 hours or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). (Shortcut: For a quick-set gelatin, simply add 4 cups ice cubes to the dissolved gelatin mixture in place of the 1 cup cold water; stir 8 minute or until gelatin begins to thicken (spoon drawn through leaves a definite impression).
9. Remove any unmelted ice.
10. Pour thickened gelatin into center of cake.
11. Refrigerate 3 hours or until set.
12. FROST borders of cake with whipped topping.
13. Decorate with remaining ingredients as desired to resemble a swimming pool.
14. Store leftover cake in refrigerator.
15. Fun Idea: Insert bite-size fish-shaped and octopus-shaped chewy fruit snacks into gelatin "pool" before refrigerating for an added treat!
