A delightful miniature version of the classic Black Forest cake, featuring layers of fluffy chocolate cake, creamy whipped topping, and sweet cherry filling.


Ingredients

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix (13.25 ounces)
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 ¼ cup water or milk
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups whipped topping
  • 21 ounces cherry pie filling


Instructions

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, water (or milk), and sour cream. Mix until fully blended.
  3. Stir in the milk chocolate chips for extra indulgence.
  4. Pour the batter into prepared mini cake pans.
