Made this with the triple chocolate cake mix and only one egg. Very moist but not quite brownie texture. I agree with others that I wanted more cherry flavor, will try sour cherries next time. Second cake I used spice cake mix and used comstock apple filing along with cinnamon chips from King Arthur and chopped pecans. I used a bundt pan and glazed with a simple powered sugar/water/vanilla glaze....We all liked this one much better. The cake assembled in less than five minutes all in one bowl...I love that! As soon as I was done putting it in the pan it was time to go in the oven. What a great recipe to have an elegant dessert with really no work at all!

NOOOOOOO Donna!! The directions say to add DRY cake mix... DOESN'T say to bake cake as directed on the box. REREAD the steps-- see Step 2? ADD DRY CAKE MIX. OK? I hope you look back on this recipe and try it...

OMG !! This definitely gets all five spoons for its taste and texture. Wonderful recipe and its a THUMBS UP from my side. Those who love the decadent chocolate flavor and yet it simple to prepare doesn't consume much time. Made this for my office potluck, and 2 of my bosses asked for the recipe. Instead of making it as bars and I took it as a cake, it was just finished within 15 mins after placing it on the table. A MUST TRY ! Thank you Betty Crocker
