Celebrate the autumn equinox with this yummy cake! I love bringing desserts like this to church during our monthly potluck meal. This is the perfect fall-inspired treat that everyone seems to enjoy. Plus, poke cakes are super easy to make. I had my daughter help me make this one and she enjoyed poking the holes in the baked cake. I have to admit, that part is really fun!
This cake is simply delightful for fall festivities, Halloween parties, and much more.
