Keto Strawberry Poke Cake

Ingredients:

For the cake:

  • 1 (15.25 oz) box sugar-free white cake mix
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the filling:

  • 1 (0.3 oz) package sugar-free strawberry flavored gelatin mix
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup cold water

For the topping:

  • 1 (8 oz) package full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered erythritol or stevia (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced, to garnish

Preparation:

For the cake:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the sugar-free cake mix, eggs, melted butter or coconut oil, 1 cup water, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour into the prepared baking dish and bake according to the package instructions, typically 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  3. Remove from oven and let cool for 15 minutes. Then, use the end of a wooden spoon or a large fork to pierce holes all over the cake.

For the filling:

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve the sugar-free strawberry gelatin mix in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir in 1/2 cup of cold water until fully combined.
  2. Pour the gelatin mixture evenly over the cake, making sure it fills all the holes. Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

For the topping:

  1. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol or stevia, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
  4. Spread the topping evenly over the chilled cake.
  5. Top with sliced strawberries.
  6. Slice, serve, and enjoy your keto-friendly Strawberry Poke Cake!
