how to make blackforest cake ??

Things You'll Need:

• Chocolate cake mix, to make 2 layers
• Large can cherry pie filling
• 8 oz. whipped topping
• Juice from maraschino cherries
• 2 round layer cake pans
• Wooden toothpicks or wooden skewer

1. Bake chocolate cake mix according to directions, or bake your own favorite recipe; do not use a mix with pudding in the middle, as it will be too moist. You will need 2 eight- or nine-inch layers for this recipe.

2. Step 2

   Remove cake from pans and place on platters, let cake cool for 5 minutes.

3. Step 3

   Poke holes in both layers of the cake, using the toothpicks or wooden skewer, approximately 1 inch apart.

4. Step 4

   Drizzle the juice from an 8-ounce jar of maraschino cherries into the holes. You can use a teaspoon, an eye dropper or a turkey baster to get the juice into the holes. Do not drizzle over the whole cake or it will be too moist to handle.

5. Step 5

   Place the chocolate cake layers in the refrigerator for 1 hour; this allows the cherry juice to seep through the cake to the bottom.

6. Step 6

   Remove the chocolate cake from the refrigerator. Open the canned cherry pie filling and spread three-fourths of the can on top of one cake layer, saving the last one-quarter for the topping. Place the second layer of cake on top of the one you've just spread the cherries on.

7. Step 7

   Ice the cake with whipped topping and place the last one-quarter of cherry pie filling on top for a beautiful presentation.
