Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Spray a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with cooking spray.
• Take 5 of the graham crackers and arrange them in the pan, breaking some of them to fill in the gaps.
• Crush the remaining graham cracker and set aside.
• Pour the vanilla cake batter on the graham cracker base.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
• Using the back of a wooden spoon, poke 4 rows of 4 holes in the cake, making 16 holes total.
• In a large bowl, mash strawberries with a whisk until very fine.
• Add cream cheese and condensed milk, whisking until there are no large lumps.
• Add the milk, stirring until smooth.

LEMONY CHERRY OR BERRY POKE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• In a mixing bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the mascarpone cheese, egg whites and oil. Make sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
• Add the cake mix, lemon zest, lemon juice, and water. Beat with mixer until it's well combined.
• Stir in the fruit.
• Spread batter into a 13x9 baking dish (I used glass).
• Bake for 35-40 minutes until it tests clean and is light brown on top.
• While the cake is baking, stir the jello into the boiling water until it's dissolved then stir in the cold water. (I used a 2 cup pyrex and the microwave for this step.) Set aside.
• When the cake is done, remove from oven and poke holes through the whole cake with a fork. Pour the liquid jello over the cake and let it cool to room temperature.
• When cooled put a cover on the baking dish and put it into the refrigerator. Let chill for 4 hours or more until the jello is firm.
• Spread the top with Cool Whip Lite.
• This cuts into nice firm squares for serving.

BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE POKE CAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare cake according to the instructions and ingredients listed on the box. Beat on medium speed until well combined. Bake cake in 9 inch by 13 inch pan for 20 to 22 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the middle of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, your cake is done. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes. To prepare the blueberry sauce, start by rinsing the berries. In a medium-sized sauce pan, combine blueberries, sugar, flour and water; stir well. Cook over medium-high heat until mixture starts to bubble, stirring often. Turn down heat and let simmer to allow the blueberries to soften. Cook until sauce thickens; maybe 10 to 15 minutes. Stir often so the bottom does not burn. Allow to cool for 20 minutes, refrigerate if necessary. While the cake is still warm, take the end of a wooden spoon or another round object and poke holes all over the top of your cake. Allow to cool for another 20 minutes. Prepare the pudding filling by combining cheesecake pudding with milk and whisk until the pudding is dissolved. Pour pudding over top of cake, filling the holes. Refrigerate at least 10 minutes until the pudding is firm. Pour blueberry sauce over top of the cake and refrigerate until cake and toppings are cooled. Remove the cream cheese from the refrigerator 15 to 20 minutes before preparing the whipped topping. At the same time, put your mixing bowl and wire whisk in the freezer to help it get very cold. This is optional, but something I usually do. Beat cream cheese on medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes until cream cheese is smooth and free of lumps. Scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally. Add 3 tablespoons of the heavy whipping cream and beat it into the cream cheese until the cream cheese resembles a liquid mixture. Then, add the remaining heavy whipping cream and beat on medium-high speed. Once the cream starts to thicken, slowly add the powdered sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Spread over cooled cake. This cake must be refrigerated.
