STRAWBERRY POKE REFRIGERATOR CAKE

Use only a very large-holed straw or the long handle of a wooden spoon to make the holes in the top of the cake or the strawberry puree will not penatrate, the holes must be at least 3/4-inch large for this. Plan well in advance the baked cake must be room temperature before topping with the puree, then there are two 2-hour chilling times after, to save time you can bake the cake a day ahead, cool then cover with plastic wrap, prep time includes chilling times. Do not make the mistake of making this into a layer cake the topping will not hold onto the sides of the cake ;-) Yellow or lemon flavor cake mix works well for this or you can use Betty Crocker Super Moist Strawberry Cake Mix. This cake is nothing short of absolutely *FANTASTIC*

10 ounces sliced frozen sweetened strawberries, thawed
1 (6 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix
1 cup milk
1 cup whipping cream, whipped
fresh strawberries

Steps:

  • For cake:.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour pan 13 x 9 x 2 inch.

  • Topping:.
  • Combine pudding mix and milk in large bowl.
  • Stir until smooth.
  • Fold in whipped cream.
  • Spread over cake.
  • Decorate with fresh strawberries, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and fresh strawberries: The quality of your strawberries will greatly impact the flavor of your cake. Look for bright red, plump berries with no signs of bruising or mold.
  • Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly: Before slicing or hulling the strawberries, make sure to wash them thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
  • Hull the strawberries: To hull a strawberry, use a sharp knife or a strawberry huller to remove the stem and the white core. This will help prevent the cake from becoming too watery.
  • Slice the strawberries thinly: For best results, slice the strawberries thinly and evenly. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the cake and ensure that each bite has a burst of strawberry flavor.
  • Use a variety of berries: If you want to add some variety to your cake, you can use a mix of different types of berries, such as blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened: Before mixing the cream cheese filling, make sure it is softened to room temperature. This will make it easier to blend and will help prevent lumps.
  • Use a light touch when folding the whipped cream: When folding the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, be gentle and use a light touch. Over-mixing can cause the whipped cream to deflate and lose its volume.
  • Chill the cake before serving: After assembling the cake, chill it for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving. This will help the cake set and the flavors to develop.
