Oreo Poke Cake


This is all over Pinterest.

It's called "Oreo Poke Cake."

It's a similar concept of "Holy Cow Cake," or "Better than Sex" cake . . .or whatever you call this type of cake!

Three reasons to make this cake:
  1. It's easy.
  2. It's not "heavy" -- so you can eat more of it . . .if you wanted too!
  3. It's versitile.  This is only the beginning of the possible flavor combinations!
I made this over the 4th of July celebration.

Not everyone ate it . . . but those who did, really liked it!

You might be wondering, "Who wouldn't eat that cake?"

I know, right?

It looks delicious!

It's moist.

It's creative!

It's my mom . . .she wouldn't try it.  She said, "Uhhh, that's way too much chocolate for me!"

Really?

Oreo Poke Cake

1 box chocolate cake mix (with listed ingredients)
2 large boxes oreo instant pudding
4 cups of cold milk
oreos
1 small container cool whip

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Make cake, according to directions on the back of the box.  Baking in a 9X13 pan.

Measure out the milk and have ready.

Pour the dry pudding into a large bow.

Once the cake is done, remove from the oven.

Mix the milk and pudding together, stirring until it begins to thicken.  Allow it to sit a couple of minutes to thicken a bit.  You don't want it thick like pudding, but you don't want it runny either. 

Using a wooden spoon, poke holes in the cake.  (I probably do 6-8 holes across and 8-10 holes down.)

After poking the holes, pour the pudding mix over the cake.

Allow to cool completely.

Frost with whipped topping, if desired, and top with crumbled oreo cookies.

Keep refrigerated.

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su...

"Hosaf" (Dried Fruit Compote)

I've made reference to our trip last Summer to different European countries. My prized souvenirs are cookbooks from each country. I'm not sure, of the 4 cookbooks, which is my favorite, but I surely enjoy the one I purchased while in Greece. I'll tell the quick story: We were in an open air market in Greece, searching through antiques and junk. Along the perimeter of where we were shopping were business. In typical European fashion, outside one of the restaurants was a young man leaning against the doorframe, as if to summon customers into his restaurant. When he heard our English, he asked where we were from, as he had studied in the States when he was in school. That question led to a great conversation and he invited us into the restaurant which he and his mother owned.  We sampled all sorts of incredible foods that afternoon and when I told him that I would love to have a cookbook because of the great experience we had just had, he showed me the co...
