Strawberry Poke Cake

Ingredients

• 1 box strawberry cake mix
• 2 Cups strawberries, fresh, frozen (thawed), or store bought
• 1 3.4 ounce package vanilla instant pudding
• 1 Cup milk
• 3 Cups whipped topping

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, Grease a 9x13 baking pan.
2. Prepare, bake and cool cake mix according to directions on package.
3. Once cake is cool, poke holes 1" apart in top (I used a wooden handle from a spoon).
4. Puree thawed strawberries with juice in blender. (I used a potato masher to mash mine). Spoon evenly over top of cake allowing the mixture to soak into the holes.
5. For topping, combine pudding mix and 1 cup milk. Fold whipped topping into pudding mixture. Spread evenly over cake. Garnish with fresh strawberries. Refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving. Keep refrigerated.
