PINA COLADA POKE CAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Prepare butter cake according to package directions. While cake is baking, drain crushed pineapple into a bowl. We need that juice for the cake. In a separate bowl, whisk together cream of coconut, sweetened condensed milk and pineapple juice. When you open the can of cream of coconut, you will probably see that some of the coconut oil and cream have separated so it's really important that you whisk this mixture so you get it combined and get most of the lumps out. Once combined, mixture will be thin. Note: The sweetened condensed milk is totally optional in this. I often make my Coconut Cream Poke Cake without the sweetened condensed milk and just use the Cream of Coconut since it is pretty sweet already. I'll leave that up to you. Once cake is done, take it out of the oven. While cake is still warm, begin poking holes in the top. I have found that this little carving fork that came with my knife set works great for poking holes quickly. Do knife sets even come with these anymore? If you don't have one, just use a fork or similar size utensil. Then pour cream of coconut mixture evenly over cake. It will look pretty saturated. But don't worry the cake is going to soak it all up. After about 30 minutes it will look like this. Once cake is completely cooled. Top it with crushed pineapple. Then spread Cool Whip on top. Then sprinkle shredded coconut on top of the Cool Whip. (You can toast your shredded coconut if you like) This cake needs to be kept refrigerated. Make sure you cover it with some plastic wrap or a lid. And serve. So good!! Enjoy!

• Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes in the cake, 6 across in each of 4 rows, to make 24 holes. Press a cherry into each hole.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream of coconut, crushed pineapple and rum. Slowly pour and spread over the cake and let stand until the liquid is absorbed into the holes, about 10 minutes.
• Spread the whipped cream over the top of the cake, sprinkle with toasted coconut and garnish with the leftover maraschino cherries.
