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...

Mixed Nut Butter

I've been making almond butter for the Mr. some time now. I used to make it in my (very) old food processor. Matter of fact, my dad bought the food processor for me before I ever got married . . . from a garage sale! So I know it's at least 20 years old, but probably older! I bet when my dad did that he had no idea I'd still be using it! That's money well spent, huh? Recently, thought, the Mr. saw a "suggestion" to make mixed nut butter. There you go; enough said! I've already made him two different kinds recently. Regardless of your preference, I don't think you can go wrong! The first I made was a combination of walnut and pecan Now, I've made a mix of cashew and walnut Next will be pecan and almond I think. It's so easy. Follow the general directions from the post about making almond butter: http://karen-proverbs31.blogspot.com/2012/01/almond-butter.html There's a bit of difference, but on...
