Summer-time just makes me sooooo happy! Easy Caramel Cream Chocolate Poke Cake makes me sooooo happy too!
Happy-Happy! Joy-Joy! Thank you Ren & Stimpy! <---Do you remember?
Ok, you'll love that this recipe is pretty simple. One yummy doctored up boxed chocolate cake with caramel sweetened condensed milk, whipped cream and your favorite caramel sauce.
Oh...And you'll need a refrigerator. Poke cakes are wonderful for this time of season because they are refrigerated and they are refreshing to eat.
I somewhat feel like a barbarian when I get around poke cakes. I get all territorial and basically shovel it into my mouth, looking pretty much like I said...A barbarian. A Poke Cake Barbarian at that! Ugh...Well, it does sound a little better that I don't use my hands to shovel it in with! I do have that going for me, at least.
I did something a little different this time. I made smaller poke holes (using a wooden skewer like you use for grilling kabobs, flat side poking into the cake, not the pointed side) instead of using the bottom of a wooden spoon, which makes larger holes. It saturated the cake even more evenly by doing this. YUM!
Those heavenly caramel swirls on top are glorious! You can go as heavy or as light as you want when you pour that golden, caramel on top and make your swirly-doos! This caramel soaked chocolate cake is so lush and delicious, no one will resist the temptation!
For more Poke Cake fun, you'll drool over this Very Cherry Cheesecake Poke Cake, this Sinful Triple Chocolate Fudge Poke Cake, this Whipped Chocolate Coca Cola Poke Cake and this Easy Boston Cream Poke Cake is always a favorite!!
Great summer treat after your dinner, BBQ's and family get-togethers. Unless you eat dessert before dinner? Never!!!

Hi Judy, I would definitely put them in cupcake liners to hold in the condensed milk and when poking small holes in them and I wouldn't poke them all way to the bottom of the cupcakes. Yum! 😀
