1970s Food - Stripe-It-Rich Cake (Poke Cake)

Misc.
ADVERTISEMENT
Stripe-It Rich Cake (aka Poke Cake) became very popular in 1977. It was Jello's famous easy-to-make home recipe of the 70s.

You make a cake either from scratch or one of the cake mixes, bake it in the oven. As soon as it's ready you take it out, poke a rows of holes all over the cake with the end of the wood spoon, mix Jello pie filling and pudding mix in chocolate flavour, pour it all over the cake, then use the rest of the pudding mix for cake icing and chill it in the fridge.

There are many wondeful "Poke Cake" recipes already posted here on the Recipe Link. (This is a fun one, for sure.)
