How to make the Black Forest, Texas Sheet Cake
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F. Using a nonstick spray, grease a 10 x 15-inch baking sheet, and set aside.
Step 2: Place the eggs and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Beat well until combined. Then, add the cake mix, along with one can of the cherry pie filling. Mix again until blended. Then, evenly spread this into the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
Step 4: In the meantime, make the frosting. Place the milk, sugar, and butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook while stirring occasionally until melted. Allow the mixture to boil for about a minute, then take the pan off the heat.
Step 5: To the frosting, stir in the chocolate chips until smooth.
Step 6: While the cake is still warm, pour the frosting over and spread it using a spatula. Allow the cake and frosting to cool.
Step 7: Slice the cake and top each serving with whipped cream and a spoonful of cherry pie filling. On top, shave the chocolate bar. Enjoy!
