Banana Poke Cake
Banana Poke Cake
"This banana poke cake is perfect for all occasions. Rich, moist, and easy to make, this dessert will have you hooked from that first bite! For an extra fluffy cake, use an electric hand mixer to beat batter on medium speed for 2 minutes. Don’t rush the cooling process. If you pour the pudding over the cake before it is cooled, the pudding will be runny and the cake will be soggy. If you need to hurry, put the cake in the freezer for about 30 minutes."
