It might seem a little counter-intuitive, but sometimes the best way to get a flavorful cake is to poke some holes in it. Weird, right? It sounds so wrong but it tastes…so right. Poke cake allows you to mix and match some flavors to create some seriously amazing combinations, that your otherwise bland cake would never have had! And you can pour just about anything into your cake holes – so that means that the flavor combos are limitless. Check out 12 of our favorite poke cake recipes.
This poke cake brings some seriously refreshing summer flavor to your regular old cake. Using condensed milk and a healthy portion of fresh lime zest, you’re about to indulge in one sweet summer treat.
