It’s no secret that I’m a fan of poke cakes, I’ve shared several different poke cake recipes on the blog over the years. I have to say, they are my go-to for those times when I need to come up with a dessert quick because not only are they super easy, they are also a crowd pleaser every single time. This EASY Caramel Poke Cake with Toffee recipe is no exception: super simple, quick and the icing on the cake? (pun intended!) VERY affordable to make!

Cream together the cream cheese and powdered sugar. Mix in the caramel creamer and spread evenly over cake.
Top with whipped topping and toffee bits. Drizzle additional caramel if desired.
Chill for 4 hours before serving.

The beauty of poke cakes is that while they are super easy to make, they always look fancy and the addition of liquid down in the cake also ensures that they are not dry. They are also a fantastic cake option for bake sales and fundraisers or cake walks. In fact, at the last school carnival we attended – all of the poke cakes were the first to go!
It’s easy to keep the ingredients for poke cakes on hand, since all you really need is a box cake and whip topping, along with whatever you decide to pour in the pokes! We have shared a few of our other favorite recipes over the years including my personal favorite Raspberry Cheesecake Poke Cake recipe and my hubby’s favorite is this Lime Poke Cake recipe.
