1 box Devil's Food cake mix
1 21 oz cherry pie filling
1 tsp almond extract
2 eggs

Mix these by hand until moist and well mixed. Pour into a greased 13 x 9 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.

When cake is cooling on a rack, bring to boil 1 cup white sugar, 5 TBSP butter and 1/3 cup of milk. Stir constantly and allow to boil 2 full minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips. Stir until melted and smooth. Pour over partially cooled cake and spread to cover top of cake.

I used Vanilla instead of Almond extract, since I didn't have the almond.

MMM! That sounds delicious! Hubby will love this cake! lol

Gotta make it! It sounds wonderful! And how easy is it?!! Thanks Wendy!

thanks for the chocolate cherry cake recipe

I have made this cake for years, but I bake it in a jelly roll pan so that I have bars and more pieces if serving a crowd.

Thank you...sounds great!

ditto to Carrie Anne!! :D :D

Good recioe, I make this a lot.

Thanks !!

One of my favorites...and I do love it with the almond extract...have had the recipe for over 20 years and passed it on to many others.
