How to Make a Lemon Poke Cake in a Slow Cooker
Aunt Lou here — I’ve always loved lemon desserts: cake, bars, puddings — everything. I also grew up loving poke cakes and even turned a cream soda poke cake into a crock pot version. Combining lemon with a poke cake felt like a perfect match, and it really is. If you enjoy lemon, this will quickly become a favorite.
