Do you have recipes that take you back to your childhood? My mom loved cherry chip cake and I haven’t had it in years! I decided to make this Insanely Good Double Cherry Chip Bundt Cake recipe for my mom’s birthday a few weeks back and wanted to share it with you.
Looking for a delicious dessert to impress your guests? Look no further than this recipe for cherry chip cake with cream cheese frosting. With its moist, fluffy texture and sweet cherry flavor, this cake is the perfect indulgence for any occasion. And with a rich, creamy cream cheese frosting, it’s sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
I am the baby of six siblings who my mom would always make us a birthday cake from a boxed mix with our flavor of choice and some added cream cheese to the frosting. Well, that is kind of how I bake, too. When it was my mom’s birthday, I had made her a cherry chip cake (double stacked with frosting in between.)
Well, I don’t make too many round cakes, but I do however love Bundt cakes because they are easier to decorate and pretty for displaying! This Insanely Good Double Cherry Chip Bundt Cake starts with cake mix, with some added love for extra moisture and flavor. And then is drizzled with some canned cream cheese frosting that gets some added maraschino cherries and juice added. Double cherry chip cake!

How to make this Insanely Good Double Cherry Chip Bundt Cake Recipe
First we start off with a box of Super Moist Cherry Chip Cake Mix. Make it according to the package but I always add a pack of vanilla pudding to the mix to help with moisture (and you can add an extra egg too). Both additions will help the cam mix taste more homemade. I also added a few tablespoons of the cherry juice into the batter.
Pour into a sprayed Bundt cake pan and bake according to the box (about 35 minutes at 350 Degrees F). Once finished let cool before trying to flip onto the play you will serve on.
For the Cherry Chip Cream Cheese Frosting
Okay so I do know how to make homemade frosting, but sometimes canned frosting with some added love tastes just wonderful and is easy to pour over a bundt cake.
So take a spoonfull of the frosting and add to the plate you will have the cake on. Spread around in a circle. Then place the can of frostin gin the microwave for about 25 seconds just until pourable (do not over heat). Then chop up aout 10 cherries and add that and a couple tablespoons of the juice right to the can and mix.
Slowly drizzle the cherry frosting over the Bundt cake in desired designs. You may have a little frosting left or just keep going around until all the frosting is used up.
Then for garnish add some maraschino cherries around on the top for serving! Slice and serve. Enjoy!
