Ingredients

  • 1 18.25 box white cake mix (plus ingredients on the box)
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3 cups mixed berries
  • 8 ounces whipped cream (Optional)

Instructions

  • In a bowl, you will mix up your cake mix as directed on the back of the box. Bake accordingly as well. Then place the cake to cool on a cooling rack.
  • Take the back of a wooden spoon and poke holes all over the cake. This is where the ganache will soak into the cake.
  • In a pan, you want to melt the chocolate chips and whipping cream on medium-low heat. Once it is melted, you have your chocolate ganache. I use a meat injector to pull up some of the chocolate ganache. 
  • Insert about 1/3 of the injector down into the cake and squeeze out some chocolate. Do this all over the cake making holes every little bit.  This really makes the cake taste amazing.
  • Refrigerate the remaining ganache, for 30 minutes. Then put the leftover ganache in a stand mixer and whip on high speed until it begins to thicken. It will give the ganache a thicker and fluffy consistency.
  • Once your white poke cake is done, top with whipped cream, and fresh berries.
