This chocolate cherry cake is made with chocolate cake mix and cherry pie filling. I like to top it with a rich chocolate frosting made with chocolate chips, butter, and milk.

Ingredients

1 (15.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling
3 eggs
1 cup white sugar
5 tablespoons butter
⅓ cup milk
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Combine cake mix, cherry pie filling, and three eggs in a large bowl until well blended; pour cake mixture into prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 to 40 minutes. Let cake cool completely.
To make the frosting: Combine sugar, butter, and milk in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until melted and smooth. Spread frosting evenly over cooled chocolate cake.
