Preparation

Step 1

Prepare and bake the cake mix as directed on package for a 13x9-inch cake.

While the cake is still warm, push 12 of cherry cordials into the cake.

Set the cake on a wire rack and cool completely.

Spread Cool Whip over cake, then cut up the remaining 3 cherry cordials on top.

NOTE: It will serve better if you go ahead and cut the cake into squares BEFORE refrigerating because the cherries that are poked down in the cake will harden, making it impossible to slice through them.

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
