How to Make Cherry Chocolate Pecan Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan. Evenly distribute 1/4 cup chopped pecans in the bottom of the pan.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) of your favorite chocolate cake mix and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
  4. Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 4 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 (21 oz) can cherry pie filling.
  5. Mix on medium speed with an electric mixer until well combined.
  6. Stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and the remaining 1/4 cup chopped pecans.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan.
  8. Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Once completely cool, slice and serve. Enjoy!
