For Fathers Day this year I tried to make it a little more special for Ryan. He truly is a great Father and I love him so much. A few weeks before Fathers Day I ran across a recipe that I KNEW Ryan would love, so I saved it just for him. It actually turned out really well. I'd have to say the icing was THE BEST I've had and the cake was excellent too. The kids certainly agreed about the icing! This is what I found the next morning:



They were liking all the icing left on the cake. Not that I blame them! It was that good! Here's the recipe:

1 box of devil's food cake mix
1 (21 oz) can cherry pie filling
1 tsp almond extract
2 eggs

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 inch pan. In a large bowl, combine dry cake mix, cherry pie filling, eggs, and almond extract. Stir by hand until well blended. (Using an electric mixer will break up the cherries.) Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool.

fudge frosting
1 cup white sugar
5 Tb butter
1/3 cup milk
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

In a small saucepan, combine sugar, butter, and milk. Boil, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until smooth. Immediately pour over partially cooled cake.

It's from this site that I love they always have super yummy breads and treats on there.
