Pumpkin Cake Variations

I love that you can do all sorts of different things with this better than sex cake with pumpkin and I can’t wait to share these ideas. Try them all to figure out which way is your favorite! (They all taste fantastic!)

• Caramel – Drizzle caramel with on top of the poke cake when you put on the sweetened condensed milk. Then add a little bit more caramel on top of the frosting. Seriously so decadent and rich.
• Snickers – Don’t have Heath bars? No problem, just crush up some Snickers bars and sprinkle on top!
• Nuts – Add in some walnuts, pecans, or crushed peanuts to the cake batter. You can also add some on top before serving too.
• Cinnamon – Skip the candy bars altogether and sprinkle the frosting with some cinnamon for a garnish. It adds a little bit of flavor and looks so pretty.
• Chocolate – Toss in some mini chocolate chips in the cake batter. Chocolate and pumpkin are a match made in food heaven! Yummy!
• White Cake Mix – If you don’t have a spice cake mix on hand, that’s totally fine! You can use a white or yellow cake mix instead. You don’t have to add in any spices, but if you wanted to, you could add in 1/2 teaspoon of allspice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Then it will have that spicy flavor you are looking for.
• Raisins – If you love raisins, then you should toss in 1/2 cup of raisins to the cake batter. It adds a tastiness and texture that it’s hard not to devour.
• Craisins – While similar to raisins, craisins are extra sweet and just make all kinds of recipes taste better. Give it a try because I am sure you will love this pumpkin dessert even more.

What Do You Use To Make Holes In Poke Cake?

In order to make nice-sized holes in a poke cake, your best bet is to use the handle of a wooden spoon. Using a wooden spoon, the holes will be large enough to take in the sweetened condensed milk. If you don’t have a wooden spoon, you could use a large fork, but you will need to make a lot of holes to make it work.

Can I Make Mini Poke Cakes?

Yes, you can make mini pumpkin poke cakes. It’s pretty easy to transform this pumpkin better than sex cake into mini cakes by using muffin tins instead. Bake the mini cakes just like you would like regular cupcakes. You will need to cook them about half the time the full-sized cake requires. Then add in holes, put on frosting, and serve. Miniature pumpkin desserts are always a hit at parties and family dinners. I like mini cakes because they are in individual serving sizes and look so beautiful too.

Do You Refrigerate Pumpkin Cake?

Yes, you need to refrigerate this pumpkin better than sex cake. Due to the cool whip and cream cheese in the frosting, this pumpkin dessert will have to be refrigerated, or it will go bad. The pumpkin poke cake with sweetened condensed milk will last 5-6 days in the fridge.

If you don’t eat all the pumpkin poke cake right away, you may find yourself wondering if it’s still good or not. You can tell the pumpkin cake is passed it’s prime if it seems really hard, dry, soggy, or has mold. If you notice that it’s bad, toss it out. Additionally, when cake goes bad, you may also notice a strange odor too.
