Ingredients
- 1 (18.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
- 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup white sugar
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
1
Begin by heating your oven to the optimal temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric). Next, take a moment to prepare your baking vessel by lightly coating it with butter and dusting it evenly with flour, resulting in a 9x13-inch rectangle.
2
In a spacious mixing bowl, merge the cake mix with the cherry pie filling and three eggs. Thoroughly combine these ingredients until they form a harmonious union, then pour the cake mixture into your prepared baking pan.
3
Place the cake in a preheated oven and allow it to bake until a toothpick inserted into its center emerges clean, taking approximately 35-40 minutes. Once the cake has finished baking, let it cool completely to prevent any accidents.
4
To create a rich and velvety frosting, combine sugar, butter, and milk in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly to ensure even heating, and cook for 1 minute. Remove the saucepan from the heat source and stir in chocolate chips until they have melted and blended seamlessly into the frosting. Finally, spread the frosting evenly over your cooled chocolate cake.
