To create the ultimate Death by Chocolate Poke Cake, you will need to gather a few key ingredients. You’ll need a chocolate cake mix (plus the box ingredients to make it), chocolate pudding, milk, hot fudge, a chocolate bar, and whipped cream.
To make the Death by Chocolate Poke Cake, start by preheating your oven to the temperature listed on the box of the chocolate cake mix. Then, follow the instructions on the box to prepare the cake batter. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and bake for the amount of time listed on the box.
While the cake is baking, you can prepare the chocolate pudding filling. Once the cake is finished baking and has cooled for about 10 minutes, poke holes all over the cake using the handle of a wooden spoon. Be sure to space the holes out evenly across the cake.
Next, prepare the chocolate pudding mix according to the instructions on the box, but use milk instead of water. Once the pudding has thickened, pour it over the cake, making sure to fill all of the holes. Use a spatula to spread the pudding evenly across the top of the cake.
Next, you’ll want to heat up your Hershey’s hot fudge in the microwave, with the lid off, for about 45 seconds. Drizzle all over the top of the cake. Let cool.
After the pudding has been added, it’s time to make the whipped cream topping. In a mixing bowl, combine the second box of pudding mix with the rest of the milk. Fold in the whipped topping carefully and spread all over the top of the cake.
Finally, break up your chocolate bar with a wooden spoon and sprinkle over the whipped cream topping for a little extra chocolatey goodness. Cover the cake and let it chill in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours before serving.
In summary, Death by Chocolate Poke Cake is the ultimate indulgence for chocolate enthusiasts. This recipe is easy to follow, and the result is a moist cake, decadent pudding filling, and luscious frosting that will satisfy all your chocolate cravings. So why not treat yourself to a slice of chocolate heaven today and indulge in this unforgettable dessert? Enjoy!
