A Boston cream poke cake is a dessert made by poking holes into a baked yellow cake and filling them with vanilla pudding. The cake is then topped with a layer of chocolate ganache and finished with a layer of whipped cream. The result is a delicious and creamy dessert with the flavors of a Boston cream pie in cake form.
