Raspberry Almond Poke Cake

Raspberry Almond Poke Cake is one of the best summer cakes to make! What is a poke cake I hear you ask? Well, a poke cake is a cake that you poke holes in and when you put a topping on the cake, it sinks into the holes making delicious pockets of extra topping throughout the cake.

Start by making a cake – I use a box of white cake mix for this. When the cake comes out of the oven, poke medium sized holes in it and pour over sweetened condensed milk. Once that has sunk into the cake, pour over homemade raspberry puree. Refrigerate and when the cake has completely cooled, top with a stiff whipped cream mixture. Serve cold, straight from the refrigerator.

To make Raspberry Almond Poke Cake, you will need the following ingredients:

So, how to make Raspberry Almond Poke Cake?

Steps to make Raspberry Almond Poke Cake

1	Heat the oven and prepare a baking pan	5
Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
2	Mix the cake	2
Add the cake mix, the extra cake mix ingredients and almond extract to a baking bowl and mix according to the instructions on the package.
3	Bake	25
Pour the cake batter into the baking pan. Smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
4	Poke holes in the cake	1
While the cake is still in the tin, poke holes in it with the handle end of a wooden spoon.
5	Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake	5
Pour the entire can of sweetened condensed milk over the cake. Wait for it to seep into the holes.
6	Make raspberry puree	1
Place the raspberries in a food processor with the sugar and water. Puree until completely smooth.
7	Puree the raspberries	2
Spoon the raspberry puree over the cake and give it time to sink into the holes.
8	Refrigerate	2h
Refrigerate the cake for 2-3 hours so it can cool completely and continue to soak up the condensed milk and raspberry puree.
9	Make the topping	2
Whip heavy cream with an electric mixer until it begins to thicken. Add the powdered sugar and almond extract and continue to mix until stiff peaks form.
10	Place the topping on the cake	2
Spoon the topping onto the cake and sprinkle fresh raspberries and almond flakes over the top.
11	Serve
