Poke cake is fun to make and endlessly versatile. You start with a boxed cake mix (or bake from scratch), poke holes in the baked cake, pour a flavorful liquid over the top, and let the cake soak it all up before frosting or glazing. No more dried-out cake, even days after you make it (if it lasts that long). And with an almost infinite variety of cake + pour-over combos, you can make poke cakes for any season and any reason.
