Ingredients

  • 1 box Devil’s Food Cake DO NOT FOLLOW PACKAGE DIRECTIONS.
  • 1 box chocolate instant pudding mix 3.4 ounce box
  • 3/4 cup canola oil or vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 8 ounces tub Cool Whip
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • 12 ounces caramel topping
  • 1/2 cup Heath toffee baking bits

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350; grease 9×13 metal pan.
  • Using a stand or hand mixer, beat together the chocolate cake mix, instant chocolate pudding mix, eggs, canola oil and water for 7 minutes (this is key to make the pudding set).
  • Once the cake is done mixing for 7 minutes, pour the batter in the greased 9×13 metal pan and bake for 32-36 minutes. Remove from the oven and place on cooling rack until completely cooled.
  • Once the cake is cooled, use the end of a serving spoon to poke holes in the cake. You can also use a fork if you want, the holes will be smaller.
  • Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the top of the cake, using the back of a serving spoon, spread the mixture until it has completely absorbed into the cake.
  • Repeat the same process this time with the caramel sauce, ensuring that it completely dissolves in the cake and fills the holes.
  • Spread the Cool Whip evenly over the top of the cake and sprinkle Heath bar pieces on top, I use 1/2 cup and then have some on the side for people to add more if they'd like.
  • Place the poke cake in the fridge for an hour; then slice and serve.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
