Slow Cooker Lemon Poke Cake Recipes

CROCK POT LEMON POKE CAKE

Steps:

• Lightly spray your 6-quart slow cooker (I used Sir Hamilton, my Hamilton Beach Programmable Insulated Slow Cooker) with cooking spray
• Pour your prepared cake mix in your slow cooker
• Place 3-4 paper towels under the lid, cover and cook on high for 1-2 hours
• Once your cake passes "the toothpick test", remove your crock from your slow cooker and let it cool
• When your cake is cooled, poke holes in your cake with a toothpick
• Mix together your lemon-lime soda with your jello
• Evenly pour your jello mixture over your cake
• In a different bowl, mix together your whipped topping and pudding mix
• Spread your topping evenly over the cake

LEMON POKE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine yellow cake mix, water, vegetable oil, eggs and lemon extract or fresh lemon juice. Mix until just combined. Pour into prepared baking dish. Bake for 25 minutes, or until cake passes the toothpick test.
• Remove cake from the oven and poke with the end of a wooden spoon or a straw while still hot. Make many holes. The more holes, the more space for the delicious pudding to hide.
• Allow the cake to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile whisk together instant lemon pudding mix with milk. It will be liquidy, but will start to thicken as you whisk. It will take about 2 minutes. When you start to feel resistance allow to stand for 1 minute. Don't wait until it sets too long or it will be too thick to sink down into your holes.
• Pour pudding mix over cake, patting down into the holes. Use a toothpick and prick more holes into the cake and pudding. Tap the whole dish several times to allow the pudding to settle into the cake.
• Chill for a minimum of 30 minutes, but wait to frost until cake is cooled or else the frosting will melt.
• When ready to frost, prepare whipped lemon frosting whip cream in a large bowl until it starts to stiffen. Add powdered sugar.
• Fold in lemon extract or fresh lemon juice.
• Cover and chill for 30 minutes before serving.

SLOW COOKER GINGERBREAD CAKE WITH LEMON SAUCE

Steps:

• Beat butter and sugar for cake in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add egg and mix well. Mix in molasses.
• Sift flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt together in another bowl. Stir into butter mixture. Add coffee and beat well.
• Grease and flour the inside of a small, quart-sized French baking dish or baking insert. Pour in batter. Place in the slow cooker. Pour water around the insert or baking dish, halfway up the sides. Cover insert with lid, or cover baking dish with paper towels.
• Cover cooker with lid slightly ajar to allow excess moisture to escape. Cook until edges are golden and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, on Low, 3 to 4 hours, or High, 1 3/4 to 2 hours. Remove dish from the cooke and let cool on a wire rack for at least 5 minutes before running a knife around the outer edge of the cake and inverting onto a serving plate.
• While cake cools, combine powdered sugar, water, lemon juice, cornstarch, and salt for lemon sauce in a saucepan, stirring with each addition. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in butter.
• Top cake with lemon sauce.
