Triple Lemon Poke Cake - lemon lovers, this is for you! Soft lemon cake, lemon jell-o and fluffy lemon topping make this all lemon dessert irresistible!
Hi, I’m Keri and I can’t stop making poke cakes! This is the 6th and certainly not the last of these easy, refrigerator cakes that combines the simplest of ingredients that you probably have in your pantry and fridge and turns them into an irresistible dessert! Now that Spring has sprung, I figured that another citrus dessert would be in order and this one packs a triple punch of lemon flavor!
TRIPLE LEMON POKE CAKE
Triple Lemon Poke Cake is an easy, all lemon dessert that is bright, tangy and unmistakably lemon!!
This dessert is not any different from any of the other poke cakes I’ve shared. They all start with a 9×13 baked cake. You can make it from scratch or grab a boxed mix from your cabinet. Since I am all about no-fuss food, a boxed mix it is! And a lemon one at that. Bake it, cool it and get ready to poke holes from here to Friday. Like this:
Triple Lemon Poke Cake - these holes are the poke in poke cake!
All of those holes give somewhere for the Jell-O to seep in to. For this poke cake, I used lemon Jell-O and poured it alllllll over the cake. That is lemon 2 out of 3 if you’re counting. As the Jell-O soaks in and sets up, it makes this cake so tender and oh-so-lemony!
Triple Lemon Poke Cake - the lemon jell-o that soaks into the cake keeps it unbelievably soft and moist!
No poke cake is complete without some type of topping or frosting. You can use regular whipped topping, but since we need lemon 3 out of 3 for this Triple Lemon Poke Cake, I made an easy fluffy lemon topping with a box of lemon pudding mix, milk and whipped topping. And I added white nonpareils and lemon slices because it just looks so pretty. They are optional, so no worries if you decide not to add them.
Triple Lemon Poke Cake - the fluffy frosting adds more lemon flavor and a cool, creamy topping!
I absolutely love the bright lemon-y yellow cake and pale yellow frosting. This cake is as pretty as it is tasty!
Triple Lemon Poke Cake - an easy all lemon dessert that is perfect for Spring and Summer get togethers!
Poke cakes are the perfect make ahead desserts, too. Since the cake needs to be refrigerated after the Jell-O is added, you can make the cake the night before and just add the garnishes right before you are ready to serve it. While I like to serve big ol’ slices, since this is a 9×13 cake, you can serve up to 18 or 24 people depending on the size of the slices. That is a lot of happy people 🙂
Triple Lemon Poke Cake is a citrus-y refrigerator cake that is so easy to make!
