A poke cake is almost exactly what it sounds like. You take a sheet cake, poke it all over with holes, and then fill it up with syrup or pudding to give it a delicious gooey texture and a great burst of flavor. It’s commonly made with fruit syrups or jello, but to make things a little more fall festive this recipe has a pumpkin twist to it.

Just in time for fall, this pumpkin cheesecake tart has a gingersnap crust that gives it just a little bit of a kick. Make the day before a big dinner or get-together and it’s sure to be a hit!

Seem's like everything has pumpkin spice flavor right now. I even saw a fast-food hamburger! Here's how you can make the syrup at home.
