A delightful and moist strawberry poke cake perfect for gatherings, infused with rich strawberry flavor and topped with whipped cream and fresh strawberries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box of white cake mix
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1/3 cup of vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup of strawberry gelatin
  • 1 cup of boiling water
  • 1 cup of fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1 container of whipped topping
  • 1/2 cup of milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the white cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes until the batter is smooth and well combined.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
  5. In a separate bowl, dissolve the strawberry gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved.
  6. Using a fork, poke holes all over the top of the cooled cake, about 1-inch apart; this allows the gelatin to seep into the cake.
  7. Pour the gelatin mixture over the cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes for maximum flavor and moisture.
  8. Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the gelatin to set and flavor to meld.
  9. Before serving, top the cake with the whipped topping and arrange the sliced fresh strawberries on top for a beautiful presentation.

Notes

For a unique twist, try using different flavored gelatin varieties. Make sure the gelatin mixture is fully dissolved before pouring it over the cake.
