Jello Pudding Poke Cake

 #HomemadeChallenge
My granny was pretty famous for her Jello Pudding Poke Cakes. So famous, in fact, that my aunt now gets requests to make the cake for people!  I don't remember EVER having it before. I am sure I did, someone can't be famous for something and their children/grandchildren not try it! Right?

A quick search on Pinterest turned up so many different poke cake recipes that you could fix one a day for a year and still have recipes left! I just used what I had on hand, yellow cake mix and vanilla pudding.

Jello Pudding Poke Cake
1 pkg Cake Mix - any flavor
2 - 3oz pkgs Instant Pudding Mix - any flavor
4 Cups Cold Milk
1 Cup Powdered Sugar
1 Tub Cool Whip Topping - optional

Prepare cake as directed on package in a 13x9 inch pan.
Remove from oven and immediately poke holes into cake (I used the handle of a wooden spoon) 1 inch apart.
Combine Pudding Mix and Sugar in large bowl, gradually stir in Milk.
Beat on low for 1 minute with a mixer.
Pour half of mixture over warm cake.
Allow remaining pudding mixture to thicken slightly, then spoon over cake.
You can stop at this point and store in the refrigerator or, you can top with Cool Whip.
Store in refrigerator.

That's it! Super duper easy and SO good!

Have you had poke cake before? What are your favorite flavor combinations? I am thinking I need to make a cookies and cream version soon!

Ok! Time to check in again! How are you doing on the #HomemadeChallenge?

Last week was our spring break, everything was more semi-homemade than homemade. Eh. There is always this week.  ;-)  Did you make anything home/handmade last week?

Strawberries and Cream Instant Oatmeal | Recipe

I don't know about you but, we go through oatmeal like that is the only thing to eat on this planet!   Seriously a TON! My youngest would eat it for every meal and snack....every day....if I let her. Yes, the little packs can be cheap (if you can find a coupon and get them on sale) but it still adds up.  I used things I already had on hand so there was no extra cost to make this.  FREE is ALWAYS good!   I tried before to make little packets to keep on hand but that was a complete fail.  I have since reworked the recipe and am happy with the results.  I decided to just keep the oatmeal in a glass container this time and scoop out what we need, when we need it.  You can also make this into packets by just scooping the desired amount into zip-top bags. {Strawberries & Cream Instant Oatmeal}   12 Servings 6 Cups Quick Cook Oats 1 1/2 Cups Oat Powder 2 Cups Powdered Milk 1 - 1 1/2 Cup Sugar 1 Cup Fr...

Being {P}resent

This post is sponsored by Family Christian . All opinions are my own. Last year I decided on the word Change for my 'word of the year'. This year, my word is Present. Present. Being, existing or occurring at this time or now. At this time. Being with one or others. Being here. Present. Over the last year, many, MANY things have changed. There have been divorces, marriages, babies being born, loved ones lost, illnesses, decisions were made. Lives were forever changed. I'm not going to lie, 2014 was a TOUGH year. I grew and learned a LOT about myself, my husband, our marriage, our children, our families and our friends. Our world was rocked more than once last year.   One of the major changes that occurred in 2014, we decided to start homeschooling. You guys. That was a HARD decision. The first few months were HARD. Our relationships with the girls changed....for the better. We have all learned SO MUCH. This change was good! Because of all of...
