Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan and prepare white cake mix according to package instructions. Pour into pan and bake for 22-25 minutes.
  2. Once cool, poke holes all over the surface of the cake, about an inch apart.
  3. Dissolve one box of strawberry gelatin in one cup of boiling water and then add half a cup of cold water.
  4. Pour gelatin mixture over the poked cake, covering it well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  5. Beat softened cream cheese until smooth. In another bowl, whip heavy cream with vanilla and confectioners' sugar until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream into cream cheese mixture.
  6. Combine crushed Golden Oreos, melted butter, and dry strawberry gelatin in a bowl until mixed well.
  7. Once chilled, spread frosting over the cake and then top with the Oreo mixture, pressing down gently.
  8. Garnish with fresh strawberries if desired. Slice into squares and serve chilled.
