Materials

  • 21 oz. can cherry pie filling
  • 3 large eggs, (amount indicated on box)
  • 15.25 oz. box chocolate cake mix

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • In large bowl, beat pie filling and eggs together.
  • Add cake mix until thoroughly blended.
  • Pour batter into cupcake liners and bake for time indicated on box. Check for doneness inserting toothpick in center of a cupcake. Toothpick should come out clean.
  • Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes, then remove to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy!

Notes

Baking times are the same if baking a double-layer cake, or a 13 x 9" cake. Follow times listed on box, then check doneness with a toothpick. Toothpick should be inserted in the center and come out clean when done.
The moist denseness of the pie filling requires a little more bake time.
