Description

Whip up this quick chocolate cherry dump cake using dark chocolate cake mix and cherry pie filling when you need dessert on short notice.

Ingredients

1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling
1 (15 1/4 ounce) package dark chocolate cake mix
2 eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 (15 3/4 ounce) can prepared chocolate frosting

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Place cherry pie filling, cake mix, eggs, and almond extract in a large bowl and mix by hand. Pour into a greased and floured 9-inch square pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes.
