Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 2
Beat together cake mix, cherry pie filling, eggs, and oil in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Beat at medium speed until a light and fluffy batter forms, about 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 26 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 4
Heat together sugar, milk, and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer, stirring constantly, until smooth and thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, add chocolate chips, and stir until chocolate is melted. Set aside to cool and thicken to icing consistency, about 20 minutes.
Step 5
Poke holes into the top of cake. Pour chocolate icing over cake, allowing it to run down the edges.
