Ingredients

Unsweetened cocoa

1 (18.25-oz.) package devil's food cake mix

1 (3.4-oz.) package chocolate instant pudding mix

3 large eggs

1 1/4 cups milk

1 cup canola oil

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 teaspoons chocolate extract

1 teaspoon almond extract

3 (1.55-oz.) milk chocolate bars, chopped

1 (24.3-oz.) container ready-to-eat cheesecake filling, divided

1 (21-oz.) can cherry pie filling, divided

2 (16-oz.) cans chocolate fudge frosting

Garnish: chocolate covered cherries, halved (optional)

Directions

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Grease 2 (9-inch) round cake pans, and dust with cocoa. Set aside.

2. Beat cake mix and next 7 ingredients at low speed with an electric mixer 1 minute; beat at medium speed 2 minutes. Fold in chopped chocolate. Pour batter into prepared pans.

3. Bake at 350° for 30 to 32 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks 10 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks, and cool completely on wire rack. Wrap and chill cake layers at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.

4. Using a serrated knife, slice cake layers in half horizontally to make 4 layers. Place 1 layer, cut side up, on cake plate. Spread one-third of cheesecake filling over cake; top with one-third of cherry pie filling. Repeat procedure twice with remaining cheesecake filling and cherry filling. Place final cake layer on top of cake; cut side down. Spread chocolate fudge frosting on top and sides of cake. Cover and chill in refrigerator until ready to serve. Garnish, if desired. Store in refrigerator.

I made this cake and took it to a Ladies Tea at Church. Everyone Loved it and our pastor mentioned it today during the announcements. (He singled this one out and there were about 30 cakes there) He only got to eat the crumbs left on the plate. This is a cake I will make over and over. Loved it!!
Thanks for the post.
