Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just treating yourself to a little slice of happiness, this strawberry cheesecake poke cake is guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth and leave you craving more. Trust me, once you try it!
For the strawberries, make one long slice off the side so its the shape of a strawberry but flat, set these aside. Chop the rest up into small pieces. Add the chopped strawberries to a bowl along with the sugar and mix that together. Place the bowl in the fridge so the strawberries can marinate in the sugar.
To make the cake follow the instructions on the back of the box using egg whites. Using a hand mixer or whisk, mix everything together until combined.
Grease a 9x13 baking dish and pour the cake batter into the dish. Bake in the oven at 350°F for 33 mins. While the cake is baking bring a pot of water to boil.
Pour your jello mix into a bowl and once your water is boiling take a cup of the water and add it to the bowl with the jello mix. Give it a stir and set it aside.
Once the cake is done, use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke holes all over the cake, going about 3/4's of the way down.
Pour the jello mixture over the warm cake, making sure to pour it evenly so it fills all the holes. Pop the cake in the fridge for at least an hour, so it can cool.
Once the cake is cooled, evenly spread on the no bake cheesecake filling. Place the set aside sliced strawberries along the edges of the cake to create a border. Then take the marinated strawberries out of the fridge, scoop them onto the middle of the cake, and spread them. Enjoy!!
