Notes
To get the layered look as in this particular picture - make your cakes in well greased and floured pans - follow baking instructions. I then tip then out onto cooling rack and invert back onto a cookie sheet. Proceed to poke holes and do the jello thing and refrigerate (or put out on the cold enclosed back porch as we do). It is a little tricky to get the layers - but I love our pan lifters to help with this process. (most people use these to take pizza off their grills, but I use it a lot for cakes)!
Enjoy! And remember - if your first time doesn't come out looking quite so perfect -- it will still taste amazing!!!
