Strawberry Cheesecake Poke Cake

Step 01

Preheat the oven to 175C/350F and spray a 23cm square baking pan with cooking spray.

Step 02

Arrange 5 of the graham crackers/plain biscuits (digestives) in the pan, breaking some to fill the gaps then crush the remaining one and set aside.

Step 03

Pour the vanilla cake batter over the biscuit base and bake for 25-30 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Step 04

Using the back of a wooden spoon, poke 4 rows of 4 holes in the cake, 16 holes total.

Step 05

In a large bowl, mash the strawberries with a whisk until very fine then add the cream cheese and condensed milk, whisking until there are no large lumps.

Step 06

Add the milk, stirring until smooth.

Step 07

Pour the mixture over the cake and leave until the cake has absorbed as much of the mixture as it can. Some staying on top is okay.

Step 08

Spread the whipped topping evenly on top then chill the cake for 3 hours to overnight.

Step 09

Slice and serve with strawberries and the reserved biscuit crumbs. Enjoy!
