Chocolate…cherries…ice cream!!! This chocolate cake extravaganza has it all! The “plain” chocolate and cherry cake is sufficient for making any holiday crowd satisfied; adding the ice cream (my idea!) is optional but I definitely recommend trying the “vanilla ice cream a la mode” version of this masterpiece AT LEAST once.
Choco Cherry Cherish (Method): Prepare cake mix in half batches to result in two separate layers (8×8 foil lined pans). Let cool on a cake cooling rack. While baking, prepare pudding, let set in refrigerator, chop rest of cherries and about 10 cookies roughly and add to pudding. Drizzle cherry juice on bottom layer of cake (leave in pan), and then spread on pudding. Level top layer with knife and invert onto bottom layer. Spread caramel sauce over top layer. Generously spread whipped topping over cake and sprinkle crumbled remaining cookies over top. Garnish each slice with a wiped cherry (so juice doesn’t run) and set in refrigerator for 1/2-1 hour.
Ingredients:
* 1 box devil’s food cake mix
* Half box (3 oz size) of instant chocolate pudding
* 1 jar of maraschino cherries (12 set aside)
* 1 jar of caramel ice cream topping
* Half tub of coolwhip
* About 15 defrosted Oreos or chocolate cookies
When it comes to holiday food, the presentation is second only to the taste. Every host and hostess wants to impress guests with a skillfully displayed holiday feast, and nothing makes a better first impression, than a beautifully displayed holiday cake.
My cake cooling rack is the perfect tool not only for decorating, but also proudly displaying my delicious holiday cake. The cooling rack design also allows me to cut perfectly even slices; there is nothing worse than “mangling” a gorgeous desert with sloppy cutting! When it comes to impressing guests, my multi-purpose cake cooling rack is a huge hit!
