Description

A delightful and indulgent dessert featuring a moist strawberry cake soaked in white chocolate pudding and topped with fresh strawberries and melted chocolate.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box of strawberry cake mix (15.25 oz) plus required ingredients to prepare the cake
  • 4 cups milk
  • 2 boxes (3.3 oz each) instant white chocolate pudding mix
  • 8 oz tub of cool whip
  • 12 oz fresh strawberries, quartered
  • 7 oz melted chocolate, suitable for dipping or drizzling

Instructions

  1. Prepare and bake the strawberry cake mix in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish following the package instructions.
  2. Allow the baked cake to cool for 10 minutes, then use the handle of a spoon to poke holes all over the surface.
  3. Combine the pudding mix with 4 cups of milk as per the package instructions. Pour the pudding mixture over the cake before it fully thickens, ensuring it fills the holes.
  4. Let the pudding set for 5 minutes at room temperature. Spread the cool whip evenly on top of the cake.
  5. Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 15-30 second increments, stirring in between until smooth.
  6. Place the quartered strawberries on the cake and drizzle with melted chocolate.
  7. Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to set the chocolate and pudding before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh strawberries.
  • Ensure the cake is completely cooled before poking holes to avoid falling apart.
  • This cake can be made a day in advance; just keep it refrigerated.
