strawberry upside down cake



I found this recipe on pinterest and used it as our fathers day dessert sunday and it turned out perfect, easy cake to prepare when you want something fast with a homemade feel to it!

ingredients:

*2 cups crushed fresh strawberries (I used a potato masher)
*1 (6 ounce) package strawberry flavoured jello
*3 cups mini marshmellows
*1 (18 ounce) package yellow cake mix (I used french vanilla and it was heavenly)
*cool whip

directions:

*preheat oven to 350 degrees
*spread crushed strawberries on the bottom of a 9x13 cake pan (I didn't have one so I used a bunt pan instead) evenly sprinkle strawberries with jello powder, top with marshmellows.
*prepare cake mix according to package then pour over marshmellows. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
*cool for 15 minutes, run knife around the pan to loosen sides, flip onto serving plate.
*top with cool whip and store leftovers in the fridge.
