Oreo Chocolate Silk Poke Cake

Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate.  

Chocolate is usually my preferred dessert,

and this one I have made several times, 

always with people wanting to take a slice home. 

What makes this cake so amazing is the 

home made  hot fudge sauce that is poured 

into the cake.  You could substitute a jar of 

hot fudge sauce, but that really doesn't taste 

anything like fudge sauce.  This is so easy 

and quick and you probably have everything 

in your pantry.

Oreo  Chocolate Silk Poke Cake

Start by making a 9x13 inch cake.  I love Betty Crocker's 

Triple Chocolate Cake mix.  Mix and bake according to 

directions.  Remove from oven and let cool for 10-15 

minutes.  Meanwhile make the hot fudge sauce.

Quick and Easy Hot Fudge Sauce

1 C. semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 C. real butter

1 can sweetened condensed milk

1/4 C. milk

Place the chocolate chips, butter and sweetened 

condensed milk in a microwave safe bowl.  Heat 

for 1 minute, then stir.  Heat for 30 seconds and 

stir again.  If needed, heat for a few more seconds. 

Stir until all of the chips are melted and it is smooth. 

Stir in the milk to thin it down.  

See, so simple, and it keeps well in the fridge, 

but not this time - you are going to use all of 

this yumminess in the cake.  

Now poke holes in the cake with the end of a 

wooden spoon or dowel.  Pour the fudge onto 

the cake, filling up the holes. Reserve a couple 

of tablespoons of the sauce for a garnish.

 Pop it in fridge to 

cool while you are making the topping.

Oreo Chocolate Silk Topping

1 small pkg. instant chocolate pudding mix

1 1/3 C. milk

12 oz Cool Whip, thawed

15 Oreos, crushed

Mix the pudding and milk together.  It will be thick. 

Let it set up for a couple of minute, then fold 

the Cool Whip in until blended.  Finally fold in 

the Oreo crumbs.  

Spread the Chocolate Silk onto the cooled cake,

and top with additional crushed Oreos and a pipe 

little reserved Hot Fudge placed in a pastry bag 

or plastic bag.

Let cool in fridge for several hours 

or overnight.  It is so moist and wonderful, 

you will want to make it again and again. 

We made this for the family, but it is fancy 

enough for company too!
