I LOVED this coffee cake and I don't normally like fruit mixed with chocolate. It was so good! More like a rich cookie or a bar...which is fine with me because it's perfect for breakfast, dessert and a midnight snack!

Have to agree with other reviewers --- flavors did not blend as expected and it was overall too sugary. I particularly thought it was too chocolate-y (which I cannot believe I'm saying because i adore chocolate). Thought maybe it was just me, but my taste-testing team declared it "okay, but not great".

I used canned raspberry pie filling instead of the cherry (preference) and reduced the amount of sugar and chocolate chips as per others' suggestions. The cake wasn't dense at all, but nice and light. Thanks for sharing such a delicious recipe.

I didn't rate this because I made some significant changes to the recipe. This is a nice idea, but each layer is so sugary it is overkill to me. I found that the flavors just didn't blend like they do in a black forest cake. However, I brought this to a german class and got positive feedback. So for those who could stand to OD on sugar, chocolate chips, and cherries, go for it, otherwise, skip dessert.
