Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Cherry DelightFulls

This article is sponsored by Nestle Toll House

I can not believe that today is 5 years that I’ve been blogging. These 5 years have flown by so quickly. That also means that Little Man is almost 6! Before I move on in this post, I just want to say THANK YOU to my loyal readers and PR, you have made this past 5 years rock! As a way to celebrate my 5 year blog anniversary I made a cake. It’s not just any regular cake, though. This cake has Dark Chocolate Cherry Nestle Toll House Delightfulls and a cherry cream cheese frosting.

This isn’t the first time you’ve seen DelightFulls on my blog. I made a caramel swirl ice cream that also featured them back when I first saw them on the shelf. That ice cream was a HUGE hit. The kids still ask for me to make it again. I have an extra bag of caramel DelightFulls, but do not have the ice cream cones to get it done.

Yes, you heard that right, I made Cherry Cream Cheese Frosting to compliment the Dark Chocolate Cherry Delightfulls that I used. It only has a hint of cherry to it, but I think it worked great with the cake I used. I used a rich chocolate cake box mix from Meijer and added in the Dark Chocolate Chips, so I think it really needed something cool and creamy to balance it all out.
