Description

This beginner-friendly chocolate toffee poke cake is ultra-moist, layered with sweetened condensed milk, caramel, whipped topping, and crunchy toffee bits.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box chocolate cake mix (e.g., devil’s food) plus ingredients listed on the box
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 jar (16 oz) caramel sauce
  • 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip)
  • 4 Heath bars, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven according to the cake mix package and prepare a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Prepare and bake the chocolate cake as directed on the package. Allow it to cool slightly after baking.
  3. Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes evenly across the warm cake.
  4. Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake, spreading it to ensure it fills the holes completely.
  5. Drizzle the caramel sauce evenly over the top and spread gently.
  6. Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours until fully chilled and set.
  7. Spread the whipped topping over the cooled cake and sprinkle with chopped Heath bars.
  8. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Notes

  • Poke holes while the cake is still warm to help absorb fillings better.
  • Tapping the pan on the counter after adding the milk helps remove air bubbles.
  • Toffee can be swapped for Skor bars, Butterfingers, or crushed Oreos.
  • Homemade whipped cream can be used instead of Cool Whip.
  • The cake tastes better when made a day in advance and chilled overnight.
