- Prepare the cake mix according to the package directions for a 9×13 cake.
- Once the cake comes out of the oven, allow it to cool for a couple of minutes.
- Use a wooden spoon handle, a spatula handle, or a similar object to poke holes in the cake. Make the holes big enough to allow the pudding to fill them.
- Be sure to poke right down to the bottom of the cake.
- In a bowl, whisk together instant pudding mix with 4 cups of milk. Stir until all the lumps are gone.
- Pour the pudding over the cake, making sure to get it into the holes as much as possible.
- Spread the pudding evenly and use the back of the spoon to gently push the pudding down into the holes.
- Put the cake into the fridge to set and cool for about 2 hours.
- Once the cake has completely cooled, spread the whipped topping over it.
- If you haven’t crushed your vanilla wafers yet, place them in a ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
- Leave some pieces relatively large for a bit of crunch.
- Spread the crushed wafers onto the top of the cake. You can do this immediately before serving if you want to ensure the wafers stay crunchy.
Enjoy your delicious Banana Pudding Poke Cake!
