NO JELLO STRAWBERRY SUPREME POKE CAKE, MILLIE'S
I was making a cheesecake and talking at the same time and added way too much liquid, so a cream cheese glaze was born. That meant a cake was in order... a strawberry one to be exact ! Now, usually that means opening a box of cake mix and Jello, but not now. I'm trying to make most of our food from scratch. Time to get creative...

Steps:
- 1. ~*~*~ I put a cream cheese glaze on this cake, but it would be excellent with sweetened whipped cream or cool whip instead. ~*~*~
- 2. * Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 3. Wash and hull strawberries. Cut in half into food processor. Pulse 8 short bursts for a rough chop.
- 4. Remove 1 cup of the strawberries and set aside. Now add the agave nectar or corn syrup and process till a nice and smooth puree.
- 5. Pour the puree into a fine strainer to remove seeds. Work puree back and forth with a spatula to push liquid on through. Set puree to the side.
- 6. Into a large bowl sift flour, sugar and baking powder. Add salt and mix well with a spoon or whisk to blend.
- 7. Make a hole in the center .
- 8. Now add the milk, coconut oil, eggs and vanilla.
- 9. Using a mixer, mix for about 1 minute. Now add in the rough chopped strawberries and mix just to blend together.
- 10. Pour into a 9x13 pan that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake 20-25 minutes @ 350F until toothpick comes out clean.
- 11. While cake is still hot, poke holes into cake. I use the handle end of a wood spoon. Slowly pour the strawberry puree over cake. Cover and refrigerate.
- 12. Once cake is cold you can top with your favorite cream cheese icing, glaze or cool whip or homemade sweetened whipped cream. Store in refrigerator.
- 13. **** For an easy cream cheese glaze, use soften cream cheese (2 pks.) , mixed till smooth then add 1 tsp. of vanilla and 2 tbsp. lemon juice and a dash of salt. Mix well then add in 1 box of powdered sugar a little at a time, mixing on low. Add enough agave nectar or corn syrup to thin into a glaze.
