Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • Chocolate cake batter (prepare according to box directions or use the Chocolate Cherry Cake batter recipe below)
  • 1 can of cherry pie filling
  • 1 cup bitter or semi- sweet chocolate (chopped or chips)
  • 2 tbs butter
  • 1 tbs milk
  • **optional whipped cream

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease & flour a mini-bundt pan.
  • Prepare cake batter, and fill the pan cavities 3/4 full.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes, until pick pulls clean. Then cool a few minutes & remove to rack to finish cooling.
  • Fill each mini-bundt cake with cherry pie filling. Focus on getting some cherries in and gently press down, a little will absorb into cake giving you a bit more room to fit more. Fill right up to the top.
  • Prepare ganache in microwave: Place the ingredients in microwave safe bowl and zap for 20 seconds, stir. Repeat until smooth but not completely soupy.
  • Spoon over each cake, and gently swirl spoon to ensure the whole top is covered.
  • Allow to cool a minute or two before serving, or do ahead of time.
  • Top with whipped cream & leftover cherry filling if you like.
