Anyone who knows me knows I love this easy summer dessert, you can vary it to make a new sweet treat every time. This time I made it for the 4th of July and decorated it like a flag!
Poke Cake
-------------------
1 boxed cake mix (plus the stuff you need to make it: oil, egg ect)
1 or 2 packages of Jello
1 container cool whip
1 small package instant pudding
Bake the cake as instructed, use a 9x13 pan. Let the cake cool. Make Jello as directed but WITHOUT the cold water. Poke the cake a bunch of times with a large fork or the handle of a wooden spoon. Pour the hot jello mixture over. Put in the fridge until cool. To make frosting: mix the instant pudding with 1/2 the milk that it calls for. Before the pudding sets up, mix in a desired amount of cool whip to make it fluffy. When cake is cool again, frost and eat!!
*This cake was white cake with cherry and blue rasperry "poke" so the cake was red, white and blue when we cut into it.and I used white chocolate flavored pudding for the frosting.*
**But, you can use any flavors you want! Lemon cake, orange "poke" and lemon pudding frosting, or Chocolate cake, rasperry "poke" and coconut pudding frosting. ......endless possibilities!
