Ingredients

  • 1 White Cake prepared in a 13x9 dish
  • 1 box instant banana pudding mix 3.4 ounce
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 large bananas sliced
  • 8 ounce strawberries sliced
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple drained
  • 12 ounce Cool Whip
  • ¼ cup chocolate syrup
  • 24 Maraschino cherries

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prepare white cake according to package directions for a 13x9 cake.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together pudding mix and milk until smooth.
  3. Remove cake from oven and poke holes all over the cake. Pour pudding immediately over warm cake. Refrigerate for 3 hours, or overnight.
  4. When chilled, top with sliced bananas, sliced strawberries, crushed pineapple and Cool Whip (in that order). Drizzle with chocolate syrup and place cherries on top. Serve cold.

Notes

  • Storing: Banana Split Poke Cake should be stored covered in the refrigerator. It's best enjoyed within a day or two of assembly.
  • Substitutions: Feel free to change up the toppings based on your preferences for banana splits. Caramel, strawberry and butterscotch sauce would all be delicious on this cake too!
  • Don't skip the chilling! Chilling the poke cake gives the pudding time to soak into the cake and set up a bit. If you skip it you'll end up with mushy poke cake that falls apart easily.
