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.

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.
