I created a new poke cake recipe. It's a version of Mounds candy bar, with all the flavor but none of the coconut. It's really delicious.

    In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, oil, egg whites, chopped dark chocolate, 3/4 cup coconut milk and hot fudge sauce. Beat together with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat again on medium speed for 3 minutes, scraping the bowl occasionally. Pour the batter into the baking pan.

    Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes.

    In a small bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, 2 teaspoons coconut extract and 1/2 cup coconut milk. Whisk together until blended.

    Poke holes into the warmed cake with a bamboo skewer. Pour the coconut milk mixture over the cake, spreading to fill the holes. Cool completely in the pan on cooling rack.
