Instructions

Preheat oven according to chocolate cake mix instructions. Bake the chocolate cake in a 9×13-inch pan as directed.
Allow the cake to cool for about 10 minutes after baking. Poke holes evenly across the surface using the handle of a wooden spoon.
Pour sweetened condensed milk over the warm cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes. Spread cherry pie filling on top while pressing it into the holes.
Cool completely before spreading whipped topping over the surface. Optionally mix in vanilla extract before spreading.
Garnish with mini chocolate chips or shavings and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
