    Quadruple Chocolate Poke Cake

    Serves 12-15

    Ingredients

    1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix, prepared to package instructions
    1 (3.4 ounce) package chocolate pudding
    1 ½ cups milk, plus 2 tablespoons, divided
    2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
    ½ cup powdered sugar
    2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
    8 ounces whipped topping, thawed
    3 tablespoons chocolate syrup
    ¾ cup chocolate chips, divided
    White chocolate sauce, to drizzle over the top

    Bake cake in 13×9 pan according to package instructions. Allow to cool.
    Using the end of a wooden spoon, poke holes in the top of the cake.
    Pour chocolate pudding over the cake, making sure to pour over the holes. Alternatively, put the pudding mixture into a plastic candy decorating bottle or icing bag and squeeze directly into the holes in the cake for more even distribution.
    Next, cream together cream cheese and powdered sugar. Mix in the unsweetened chocolate and 2 tablespoons of milk. Spread evenly over the cake.
