Step-by-Step Instructions for Rose Poke Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9x13 inch cake pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the cake flour and baking powder until combined and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, vegetable oil, and sugar on medium speed for about 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition.
- Gradually add half of the dry ingredients, then buttermilk and rosewater. Stir in remaining dry ingredients until smooth.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cake cool for about 10 minutes, then poke holes throughout the top with a wooden spoon.
- Mix sweetened condensed milk and additional rosewater, then pour over the warm cake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely to absorb the mixture.
- In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and a splash of rosewater until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the whipped cream topping over the cooled cake evenly.
- Decorate with dried or fresh roses, if desired, and refrigerate until serving.
- Slice the cake into squares and serve.
