It's not like store mixes. It's a cream cake mix with pudding in the mix and loaded with mini chips. It's fudgier, moister, and denser. It balances better with frosting. This is not just a cake mix, it's a dessert mix. With extra chocolate added and gourmet cocoa, this is a better buy.
To Make the Cherry Chocolate Cake: Again make a 9x13-inch cake. Cut the cake into halves, lengthwise, and let it cool. Again make whipped cream frosting but add some cherry pastry filling to the frosting. The filling tint the frosting, help stabilize it, and add chunks of cherry to the frosting. Add flavor or more color if desired. Use the frosting as filling between layers and frost the outside of the cake.
