Instructions
Prepare the Cake: Bake the white cake according to the package instructions in a 9x13 inch pan. Allow to cool completely.
Make the Raspberry Sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine raspberries, sugar, and water. Cook until the raspberries break down and the sauce thickens. Strain to remove seeds and let cool.
Create the White Chocolate Ganache: Heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer, then pour over the white chocolate chips. Stir until smooth and let cool slightly.
Assemble the Poke Cake: Using the end of a wooden spoon, poke holes all over the cooled cake. Pour the raspberry sauce over the cake, ensuring it fills the holes. Follow with the white chocolate ganache.
Make the White Chocolate Mousse Topping: Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Fold in the melted white chocolate until smooth. Spread over the cake.
Chill: Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to set the mousse and allow the flavors to meld.
Serve: Slice and serve chilled. Garnish with fresh raspberries and white chocolate shavings if desired.
