Expert Tips for Making Christmas Poke Cake

  • Warm It Up: Try serving your Hot Chocolate Poke Cake warmed up to get the real hot chocolate feeling and enhance the chocolate flavor by making it hot and fudgy (also try with your Cinnamon Poke Cake).
  • Heavy on the Cream: You can substitute heavy whipping cream for milk called for in a recipe to make what you’re baking or stirring more fluffy.
  • Poke Cupcakes: You can bake your cake in cupcake pans and poke one hole down the center of each cake to make Poke Cupcakes that are easy to serve.
  • Add Some Crunch: You can add pecans, walnuts, almonds or cookie crumbles to the top of your cake to give an extra crunchy texture to a fluffy or creamy cake. (Always be aware of nut allergies before topping)

Pumpkin Poke Cake

Pumpkin Poke Cake is a delicious make-over of a Christmas dessert favorite. I don’t know about you, but I’ve always had trouble baking a good pie. The top seems to burn while the crust doesn’t bake, but I looove pumpkin pie (who doesn’t). So if this describes you too, these recipes will be your favorite gift. It’s all the wonderful taste of a pumpkin pie, but in the soo easy to bake form of a poke cake. Merry Christmas 😉
