Blue food coloring

3 c. whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350º and spray a 9″-x-13” pan. Prepare cake mix according to package directions.
- Add a few drops of blue food coloring to cake mix, and bake until an inserted toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let cool.

- Wrap four around each powdered sugar donut and fasten with some marshmallow fluff, if needed.
- Poke holes all over the cake; using end of a metal spoon.
- Combine marshmallow fluff and water in a medium, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 10 seconds on high and mix until fully combined. Pour all over the cake, making sure to fill the poked holes.
