Description
A delicious dessert combining rich white chocolate and tart fresh raspberries, this poke cake is a feast for the senses.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box white cake mix (plus ingredients to prepare as per package instructions)
- 1 cup fresh raspberries (or thawed frozen raspberries)
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 8 oz white chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- Fresh raspberries for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Prepare the white cake mix according to package instructions and pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake the cake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
- Use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke holes evenly all over the cake (about 20-25 holes).
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chopped white chocolate, stirring until smooth and fully melted.
- Pour the white chocolate mixture over the poked cake, making sure it fills the holes. Use a spatula to spread it evenly. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes so the filling can soak into the cake.
- In a bowl, beat the whipped cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the top of the cake.
- Garnish the top with fresh raspberries for a burst of color and flavor.
- Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor. Let the cake chill in the fridge to improve taste.
