Refrigerate it until it’s chilled completely, top it with some cool whip and more of the peppermint chips!

TIPS FOR POKE CAKE:
- You can use a cake made from scratch, a box cake, or a store-bought cake.
- White cake pairs well with all flavors of jello
- Add a layer of similar pie filling to the top of the cake then top that with whip cream. Such as strawberry jello with strawberry pie filling
- For a nice clean slice, wipe the knife after each cut.
VARIATIONS & STORING
Can I make poke cupcakes? Absolutely! Instead of making a 9×13 cake make cupcakes according to the directions on the box. Once the cupcakes have cooled poke them with a fork or skewer, use a soup spoon to drizzle jello into the holes and chill.
How do I store poke cake?
- Refrigerate: Because of the pudding, keep the cake chilled. Tightly cover the cake and keep in the fridge for 2-3 days.
- Freeze: To freeze, wrap the cake with plastic wrap, then again with aluminum foil. Label and freeze for up to 3 months.
