Easy Cranberry Poke Cake For Lazy Moments Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Prepare the cake according to pkg. directions but with one egg and 1/3 of the oil less.
• 2. Once you take the cake out of the oven, let cool only two minutes, then poke holes in it with the end of a wooden spoon.
• 3. Heat cranberry sauce in the microwave for 1 minute, stir. Pour over cake, spreading out with a big spoon to make sure the holes get filled.
• 4. Place in fridge for one hour. Now beat the heavy cream on medium speed with an electric mixer for one minute. Add cornstarch and powdered sugar and beat on high speed until very stiff.
• 5. Spread whipped cream over the cake. Sprinkle dried cranberries on top of the cream and place back in fridge until you serve it.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Prepare your favorite plain vanilla cake recipe or use a prepared box and follow its instructions.
• Using the back of a wooden spoon, poke at least 3 rows of 4 holes in the cooked cake, making 12 holes total.
• In a large bowl, mash the strawberries with a potato masher or fork until mashed to a pulp.
• Add the cream cheese and condensed milk, whisking until there are no large lumps.
• Add the mashed blackberries and raspberries; stir just once or twice so the colors remain differentiated.
• Pour the mixture over the cake and let settle into the holes for about 10 minutes. Some of the mixture will still stay on top, which is okay.
• Spread the whipped topping evenly over the cake. Sprinkle graham crackers on top and add sliced strawberries or other fresh berries.
• Chill the cake for at least 3 hours or up to overnight.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan. Sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl, mix together 1 cup of white sugar, 1/3 cup of orange juice, eggs, buttermilk, cranberry liqueur, and vegetable oil using an electric mixer. Add the dry ingredients and mix just until moistened. Fold in the chopped dates, cranberries and orange zest. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
• Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted into the crown of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan set over a wire rack for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the cake from the pan and place on a serving plate. In a small saucepan, stir together 1 cup of orange juice and 3/4 cup of white sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Use a turkey baster or large spoon to drizzle the sauce over the cake. Poke the cake with a fork or skewer to help it absorb all of the sauce, or until the cake is thoroughly moistened.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Beat 1 cup sugar and 3 tablespoons melted butter with a whisk until well mixed. Add eggs and beat until smooth. Stir flour mixture and milk into egg mixture until batter is well blended. Fold cranberries into batter until just mixed and pour into prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
• For sauce, heat 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup butter, heavy cream, and vanilla extract in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir cream sauce until sugar is dissolved, about 10 minutes. Pour hot sauce over hot cake. Allow cake to cool in the baking dish for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
