S’mores Poke Cake

Sharing is caring!

So it’s no secret around here that I love s’mores, but this new s’mores poke cake might just be my favorite yet. (Although these s’more’s milkshakes are pretty delicious!)  This yummy poke cake combines rich chocolate cake with a melted marshmallow filling, and tops it off with vanilla buttercream and a crunchy graham cracker topping.

It makes the perfect summer party dessert, and has all of the delicious s’mores flavor without the campfire.

S’mores Poke Cake

Ingredients:

Cake

• 1 box Devil’s Food Cake (and ingredients needed to make it)

Filling:

• 1 can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 1/2 cups marshmallow fluff
• 3/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Topping

• 1 1/2 cups buttercream frosting
• 1 cup crushed Golden Graham cereal or graham crackers
• 1/2 cup triple chocolate chips

Directions: 

Make the cake according to directions and allow to cool. A 9x13in pan tends to work best for poke cakes but you can also use a gorgeous copper pan like this one

Melt butter for the filling in a bowl and slowly mix in marshmallow fluff, powdered sugar, salt and sweetened condensed milk.  Set aside.  Use the end of a spoon to poke holes across the cake (see example), and slowly fill with filling mixture.

Allow to sit for a few minutes to allow filling to sink in to holes. Then frost cake with buttercream frosting (for a less rich cake you could also used whipped cream). Sprinkle crushed graham cereal or crackers and then chocolate chips over the top.  You can also drizzle a bit of the marshmallow filling over the top.  Serve!
