STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM POKE CAKE RECIPE



Strawberries and Cream Poke Cake Recipe image

White cake with strawberry jello, whipped cream cheese frosting, and strawberries on top, our Strawberries and Cream Poke Cake Makes the perfect summer dessert.

Provided by Contributor

Categories     Dessert

Time 4h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 box white cake mix (15.25 ounces)
1 cup boiling water
1 3 ounce box strawberry flavored Jell-o
1/2 cup cold water
1 8 ounce tub Cool-Whip non-dairy whipped topping
1 8 ounce package cream cheese (softened)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 pound strawberries (diced)

Steps:

  • Make cake as directed on the back of the box for a 9x13" pan.
  • Let the cake cool for 20 minutes and "poke" the cake with a large fork (I space my pokes about 1/2" apart and do it until the entire surface of the cake is covered).
  • Mix together the boiling water and Jell-o until the Jell-o is completely dissolved. Pour in the cold water and mix well then pour over the cake.
  • Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for three hours.
  • Combine the Cool-Whip, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla and beat until smooth (I have found that it's easiest to use an electric mixer, but you don't have to). Spread on top of cake.
  • Top with strawberries and keep in the fridge until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • For a more intense flavor, use a flavored gelatin mix, such as strawberry, lemon, or orange.
  • To make the cake extra moist, poke holes in it with a fork before pouring the gelatin mixture over it.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a plastic bag with the corner cut off to pipe the frosting onto the cake.
  • For a fancier presentation, decorate the cake with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or sprinkles.
