And you won't break your teeth eating them. They are white chocolate peppermint candy bits, and they are DELICIOUS. So I almost always default to Andes Peppermint Bits anytime I'm making a recipe that needs “candy cane” pieces. Maybe it's just me, but I'd rather not break my teeth whilst enjoying my dessert. Okay, so here's something really important to know about this cake!! I'm not using actual candy cane peppermint bits here. Most importantly: don't email me complaining that it didn't turn out the way my pictures look!!!!.Don't add it to the cake until the very last moment before serving,.Either make stabilized whipped cream, or.If you must.īut here are my rules for subbing homemade whipped cream in a poke cake: People always ask, “can I use homemade whipped cream?” Suuuuuuuuure. Continue to whisk until creamer is smooth and begins to simmer (about 5 minutes). Cocoa powder will begin to dissolve as the milk and cream heats and you continue to whisk. If you've ever had a poke cake, you know that the SCM fills the holes poked in the cake and seeps into every nook and cranny, making an incredibly moist and delicious dessert. On the stove top over medium to low heat, whisk together all ingredients in a medium sauce pan. And when it comes to a poke cake, airy = absorbent = ☺️. I'm just saying that I seriously doubt it will be as airy as a box cake mix. I'm not saying you can't make a mean, moist chocolate cake from scratch. But in this particular recipe, I really think you should be using a box mix cake.Ī box mix always yields a softer more tender cake than a homemade cake. Normally, I say you can go from scratch or box mix in most of my recipes that call for a baked cake. In this post, I'm going to give you the basic version: There are a lot of different ways you can piece this gem of a recipe together. I'm too busy cramming in as much pumpkin and pecan pie as I can right up until the last Turkey-day minute.īut now that it is officially the holiday season, allow me to re-introduce you to my famous C hr is tm as Po ke Ca ke. I don't decorate until after Thanksgiving though (and since we just barely moved, it won't be until waaaaaaaaay after Thanksgiving this year) and we don't start eating peppermint until after Thanksgiving either. Although, when it comes to my house we don't mind starting a little early with the tunes. I guess that's when Christmas “officially” begins. I can't believe what Christmas rule-followers you all are! I didn't get a single question about this peppermint recipe until Thanksgiving day. And on Thanksgiving Day on the dot my inbox started filling up with readers wanting to know where the recipe had disappeared to.

Do you know how I've been trying to update some of my older photos and recipes? Well, I pulled this one a couple of months ago for some re-vamping. This cake recipe has been a reader favorite for years.
