Painkiller Poke Cake

Painkiller Poke Cake

Inspired by Pusser’s Rum’s Painkiller Week in April, I wanted to make a tasty sheet cake that didn’t take a lot of fuss. This has become my go to recipe for quick and boozy parties.

The best part is that you can mix yourself a Painkiller to drink while you bake. It really couldn’t be finer.
