BETTER THAN EASTER CARROT POKE CAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Leave the cake in the dish it was baked in, this is not a free standing cake. Poke approximately 20 to 25 holes, spread evenly, over the top of the cake with the bottom of a wooden spoon. Pour the sweetened condensed milk over top, trying to fill the holes as much as possible. In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat together the cool whip, the cool whip frosting, and the whipped cream cheese until smooth. Spread over top of the cake. Pour the caramel sauce over top of the cake, and sprinkle with chopped pecans. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, really overnight is best. Cut into 12 squares to serve (you can cut more, 1/12 is a pretty large piece!). NOTES: Cool Whip Frosting is not the same as cool whip. But you can find it right beside the cool whip in the freezer section of your grocery store. You will not be able to stop eating this. Just a fact.
