Cream Cheese Lemonade Poke Cake

My cream cheese lemonade pie has been such a hit, and is the most popular recipe on the blog, so I decided to make this fabulous cream cheese lemonade poke cake using the same pie filling in that delicious dessert. AMAZING!

So basically, just get a lemon cake mix and prepare it as directed. Let it cool and then poke holes all over the top of the cake. Make the cream cheese lemonade pie mixture and spread all over the top. Try to get some down into the holes. Cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge for 4+ hours or overnight. After the pie mixture has set up, top with cool whip, garnish with sliced lemon slices and serve chilled.

If you want to get real creative, make a homemade lemon cake. I have one here that I made a while back that is so good that will work wonderful with this recipe. Just cut the ingredients in half and it will make a 13 x 9 cake.

I wanted something fast and simple, that tasted great, and had the tartness of lemon to enhance this dessert even more. Welcome the addition of the cream cheese lemonade pie mixture. I was super excited thinking of making this dessert knowing how delicious the pie is and knowing how delicious a lemon cake is, and then to combine the two. HEAVEN!

    I tried the cake and followed the directions carefully. The pudding mix was not pourable and more of a pudding consistency. It did not penetrate through the holes though I tried to push it down the rather large holes. The cake was not moist. Any suggestions – I so wanted to love this cake.

      Hi Connie, I know the pudding mixture is pretty thick, and using the back of the wooden spoon helps with making the bigger holes. It is a bit thick to get down into the holes, and my suggestion is to maybe not mix the pudding mixture as long so it doesn’t get as thick. Mine didn’t get into all the holes either, but it is so delicious with both the cake and the lemonade pie filling together in every bite. It’s so good, I hope you’ll try it again. :)

    Wonder if you could make this a layer cake???

      Hi Vickie, I think it would and I am going to try it one day soon. I would say to make sure that the “poke holes” are large enough to get the lemonade pie filling down in there so it’s a thinner layer between the layers. I can only imagine how good it will be with the lemonade filling saturated throughout the cake. Yep, I’m making it SOON!
