This is another cake from one of my favorite recipe books, The Cake Mix Doctor by Anne Byrn.For Cake:
1 package plain devil's food cake mix
1 can (21 oz.) Cherry Pie Filling
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure almond extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease or mist 9 x 13 pan. Place cake mix, pie filling, eggs, and extract in mixing bowl. Blend with electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stop machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Then mix on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until it springs back when lightly pressed with finger. Cool for 20 minutes and prepare the glaze.
Glaze:1 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup whole milk
1 package (6 oz.) or 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Place the sugar, butter, and milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil. Boil, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips. When the chips have melted and the glaze is smooth, pour it over the warm cake so that it covers the entire surface. The glaze will be thin but will harden. Cool for 20 more minutes before cutting.
