Acapulco Princess Black Forest Cake

Ingredients:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 cups sugar
– 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 2 tsp baking powder
– 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1 tsp salt
– 2 eggs
– 1 cup whole milk
– 1/2 cup vegetable oil
– 2 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 cup boiling water
– 1 cup cherry pie filling
– 2 cups whipped cream
– Shaved chocolate for garnish

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.
3. Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes until the batter is smooth.
4. Stir in the boiling water until well combined. The batter will be thin, but this is normal.
5. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans and bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Once the cakes are completely cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread the cherry pie filling over the top.
8. Add a layer of whipped cream over the cherry filling, then gently place the second cake layer on top.
9. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining whipped cream. You can decorate the cake with additional cherry pie filling and shaved chocolate for a more elegant look.
10. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
