Our easy Strawberry Shortcake Poke Cake is so simple to make using my favorite cake mix shortcut; it’s simply baked, poked, filled with strawberry pie filling, and topped with Cool Whip and fresh fruit.

Even more fruity than my strawberry jello poke cake, just as bright and beautiful as my strawberry crunch poke cake, less creamy than my strawberry cheesecake poke cake, but every bit as delicious as any strawberry poke cake with jello, this dessert delivers the essence of shortcake without the stress of making multiple tiers.

This strawberry poke cake is a tasty twist on the traditional multi-tiered shortcake; it takes the classic combination of strawberries and cream, and prepares it using the poke method.

A poke cake is a freshly baked cake, either from a box or from scratch, poked with holes and filled with a liquid or creamy filling to infuse flavor.
