This recipe for Strawberry Banana Pudding Cake is an easy recipe made with rich banana pudding and fresh strawberries.

This week, I thought I'd share one of my new favorite cake mix poke cake recipes!
I actually let my daughter decide what kind of cake we'd have for her little brother's first birthday (because...well...he's 1). She immediately said strawberry - the girl loves a good piece of strawberry cake! Since I've mentioned before that Jackson is addicted to bananas, I thought I'd step this strawberry cake up a notch.
The flavors blended perfectly. It was a really light cake that would be great for spring or summer! Trust me, it's super easy and will make everyone think you worked on it all day. You've got to give this one a try!
Here's the recipe...

1 box strawberry cake mix
4 eggs
1 stick butter, melted
1 cup milk
