Once upon a time, there were two mommies who had a passion for cooking and a flare for baking, but had busy schedules. After sharing their passion with friends and family, they decided to venture out in to the world and spread their ideas on easy {yet delicious} meals and tips on how to save time in the kitchen. And they baked happily ever after.

Easy Cherry Chocolate Cake

Contributor: Mama Nichole

Do you like chocolate covered cherries? If the answer is YES then you will LOVE this easy cake with a semi homemade fudge frosting. The cherries aren't as  powerful as the Christmas favorite but they do bring alot to the table every mouthful.

Here is your line up for the cake:

1 box devils food cake mix
1 (21oz) cherry pie filling
1 1/2 tsp. almond extract
2 eggs

Preheat oven 350 Grease 9x13 pan. In large bowl mix all ingrediants using electric mixer. Get the cherries nice and broken up so they bake through out the cake and not just settle at the bottom. Bake cake for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Allow to  partially cool before pouring the amazing fudge frosting on top.


Here is your line up for the fudge frosting:
1 cup of white sugar
5T butta
1/3 cup milk
1 1/4 cup of semi sweet chocolate chips

In small sauce pan combine all ingrediants except for the chips. Bring to a boil. Take off heat and stir in chips until smooth. Immediately pour over partcially cooled cake.


Serve this bad boy with some homemade blue bell vanilla ice cream and you've got yourself a crowd pleaser!
