Get ready for a spooktacular treat! This Halloween Poke Cake is a deliciously fun dessert that will thrill your guests!

Ingredients:  

- 1 box chocolate cake mix (plus ingredients listed on box: eggs, oil, water)  

- 2 boxes instant pudding mix (chocolate or vanilla, tinted with food coloring)  

- 4 cups milk (for pudding)  

- 1 tub whipped topping (Cool Whip or similar)  

- Orange and purple gel food coloring  

- 1/2 cup crushed Oreos  

- Halloween sprinkles  

- Candy eyeballs  

- Gummy worms  

- Candy corn (for garnish)   

Directions:  

1. Preheat your oven and bake the chocolate cake in a 9x13-inch pan according to the package instructions. Once baked, let it cool for a bit.  

2. Grab the handle of a wooden spoon and poke holes all over the cake. Keep it fun and even!  

3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pudding mixes with the 4 cups of milk until thick. Divide them into two bowls and add orange gel color to one and purple to the other.  

4. Time to poke – pour the vibrant colored pudding into the holes you made, alternating between the orange and purple for that ghoulishly cool effect!  

5. Spread the whipped topping evenly across the top of the cake like a fluffy cloud.  

6. Decorate with the crushed Oreos, sprinkle on some Halloween-themed sprinkles, and add candy eyeballs for a fun, creepy touch.  

7. Finish up with gummy worms or candy corn to add more festive flair.  

8. Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours to let the pudding set – but it will be totally worth the wait!
