Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes until the batter is smooth.
-
Stir in the boiling water until well combined. The batter will be thin, but this is normal.
-
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans and bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cakes are completely cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread the cherry pie filling over the top.
-
Add a layer of whipped cream over the cherry filling, then gently place the second cake layer on top.
-
Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining whipped cream. You can decorate the cake with additional cherry pie filling and shaved chocolate for a more elegant look.
-
Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
