Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box chocolate cake mix (15.25 oz)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup chocolate fudge sauce
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup whipped topping
- Chocolate shavings or sprinkles for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9×13 inch baking pan by greasing it lightly.
- Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, and water. Mix until well combined and pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
- Step 3: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- Step 4: Once cooled, use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke holes all over the surface of the cake. Make sure to poke deep enough to allow the liquids to seep through.
- Step 5: In a separate bowl, mix together the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate fudge sauce. Pour this mixture evenly over the poked holes in the cake, allowing it to soak in.
- Step 6: Top the cake with mini marshmallows and spread whipped topping over everything. Optionally, garnish with chocolate shavings or sprinkles before serving. Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to let flavors meld. Enjoy!
Notes
- For optimal storage, cover the cake tightly with plastic wrap or foil and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days to maintain its freshness.
- If you'd like to enjoy a warm slice, simply microwave a piece for about 15-20 seconds; this will soften the marshmallows and enhance the fudgy flavor.
- Serve the cake chilled for a refreshing treat, and consider adding fresh berries or a scoop of vanilla ice cream alongside each slice for an extra indulgent experience.
- To elevate your poke cake, try using flavored fudge sauce, such as caramel or peanut butter, for a unique twist that will surprise your taste buds!
