Jelly Cake

Rex Jelly was used by my paternal grandmother when she made the Jelly Cake for the holidays. This jelly recipe is close to its flavor.

Ingredients:

1 box Duncan Hines Butter Cake Mix, plus ingredients to make cake
2 lb jar of apple jelly
1 pkg 3 oz., raspberry jello
1/4 tsp lemon extract
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
shredded coconut, if desired for top

Directions:

The night before you fix your cake fix the jelly by combining the last four ingredients and refrigerate.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two 8 or 9 inch cake pans. Bake cake as directed. Cool completely.

Split layers equally to make four layers. Spread jelly mixture between layers, on top and sides of cake.

 Sprinkle with coconut, if desired. Keep refrigerated.
