Betty Crocker's Chocolate Peppermint Poke Cake

I'm not really a fan of Peppermint but I know many friends and family members that are, so I decided to share this recipe.
This will be great for Christmas.




Here's what you'll need:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
1 - 9" X 13" pan brushed well with Pan Release Mix. (equal parts of Crisco, Vegetable Oil and Flour) I start with 1 C of each mixed well and refrigerated in a jar. I always have it available for all of my baking needs.

Filling:
1 (4 serving) Box of White Chocolate Instant Pudding and Pie Filling Mix.
2 C Whole Milk

immediately pour this mixture over the cake.) See below for directions to Poke the Cake and Pour the Pudding Mix over it.

Icing:
1 Container of Betty Crocker Whipped Milk Chocolate Frosting

3/4 C Chopped Peppermint Patty Candy (8 pieces)

Bake the Cake according to the directions for a 9" X 13" pan.
Remove the pan to a rack to cool for 15 minutes.
Use the handle of a Wooden Spoon and poke holes in the cake every 1/2".
Immediately pour the Pudding Mixture over the entire Cake.
Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

After 2 hours , Spread the Icing evenly over the entire Cake.
Sprinkle evenly with the Chopped Candy.

Cover if you need to refrigerate it until serving.
