- 1 cup chocolate fudge sauce
- 1 (21 oz) can cherry pie filling
- 1 (3.4 oz)box vanilla instant pudding
- 1 cup milk
- 4 cups frozen whipped topping thawed
Instructions
- Bake the cake in a 9x13 pan according to package directions and allow it to cool completely.
- Once the cake is cool, use the handle of a wooden spoon or the wide end of a chopstick to poke holes all over the cake.
- Heat the chocolate fudge in a microwave-safe dish or in a small saucepan on low heat, just until the sauce is warm and pourable.
- Pour the sauce over the cake paying special attention to fill the holes.
- Spread the cherry pie filling over the top of the cake.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and milk just until it begins to thicken. Then fold in the whipped topping.
- Spread the topping evenly over the top of the cake.
- Decorate with chocolate shavings or sprinkles and allow to rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the filling and topping to set.
