Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x13-inch baking pan by greasing or lining with parchment paper.
- Mix the boxed white cake mix with eggs, oil, and water as per the instructions on the box until smooth.
- Divide the cake batter into 3-4 bowls and add drops of gel food coloring to each, stirring gently to combine.
- Spoon colored batters into the baking pan in alternating colors and gently swirl with a butter knife.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes and check for doneness with a toothpick.
- Allow the cake to cool for 15-20 minutes, then poke holes evenly throughout using the handle of a wooden spoon.
- Whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk for about 2 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Pour the prepared pudding over the cooled cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes.
- Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow it to soak in the pudding.
- Once chilled, spread a layer of Cool Whip over the top of the cake.
- Decorate the top with optional toppings like sprinkles, berries, or candy eggs before serving.
