directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease and flour two 8 or 9 inch round cake pans.
  • In a large bowl, add the cake mix, pudding, cinnamon, eggs, oil and buttermilk, beat for 3 minutes until smooth, then pour into prepared cake pans .
  • Bake the cake for 35- 40 minutes or until done when tested with toothpick.
  • Set on cooling rack and allow to cool completely.
  • Once cooled, spread the top of the first cake with the cool whip, then gently place the cherries and a little of the sauce on top of the cool whip leaving a 1/2 inch margin. Place the remaining cake gently on top.
  • Put the cake in the fridge while preparing the ganache frosting.
  • To make the ganache, add the butter and chocolate chips in a small pot and melt slowly over low heat, then stir in milk and corn syrup until smooth. (3 - 5 minutes)
  • Remove the pot from heat and stir the frosting then pour over the top of the cake.
  • For a harder frosting place the cake in the fridge and for a softer topping leave the cake on the counter.
  • Enjoy!
