Cake and chocolate are two of my favorite things in life. I am pretty sure most would agree with me. So, making this cherry cake recipe comes naturally! I used a bundt pan, but prefer the silicone bundt pan to make this in. You can use any cake pan, I just find this usually presents pretty when serving guests.

Sugar Substitutes on Weight Watchers
I realize that not everyone likes to use the sugar substitutes found in the cake mix and soft drink. Yes, they can be bad for you and I personally limit them, but every person has to make the choice for their health. For some, it is better to make this choice over eating an entire full fat and sugar-laden cake. So, determine what is best for you, and make a choice that works in your diet plan.
Make this chocolate cherry cake recipe as a great cake mix upgrade that your entire family will love seeing you serve!
