Double Chocolate Toffee Poke Cake is a moist, very chocolatey cake, filled with Toffee sauce and a whipped cream topping AND drizzled with extra sauce !
Dripping chocolatey, the cake is already moist – add Toffee Sauce and you have a double winner ! And this double Chocolate Toffee Poke Cake has it all.
I was craving a moist, toffee or caramel kind of poke cake for weeks now. Finally, I decided to come up with something myself, as, for once, I just could not find any inspiration on the internet or in any recipe book.
You know that feeling, no matter how many recipes you look at, it is not right, not what you want !
Over the last couple of years, I have come to realize that when I am in the mood for something specific, best is to make the recipe up myself.
There has been total write-offs, never to be repeated again dishes which started out this way. But many made the cut and I am happy to say, this is one of the best Poke Cakes I have had in a long time.
