The "Way to Make His Heart Pound" Cake

1 yellow cake mix
4 eggs
3/4 c. water
6 oz. chocolate chips
1 large instant chocolate pudding mix (dry)
3/4 c. oil
8 oz. sour cream
2 cans cherry pie filling
redi whip
mini chocolate chips
Heart shaped pan

Combine all ingredients except redi whip, pie filling, and mini chips. Pour into sprayed heart shaped pan. *The cake pan will be very full. Bake at 350 degrees for 70 minutes, until cake is firm in the middle. Allow to cool 10-15 minutes. Invert pan onto plate. Cool completely. Slice cake in half horizontally, creating 2 heart shaped cakes. Remove top layer of cake with a wide spatula and place/flip onto a piece of wax or parchment paper. Spread one can of pie filling on top of bottom layer of cake. Top with second layer of cake. Pipe redi whip around outside edges of cake (looks like lace) and spread 2nd can of pie filling in middle of the top cake. Garnish redi whip with mini chocolate chips. Keep cake refrigerated. Yummy!

*(If you don't want it as full, bake some of the batter in a separate pan or  prepare to remove the extra from the baked cake. I just filled the pan, and as it cooled, it fell some. You could also make the extra baked cake into cake balls)

The 1st picture is of the sliced baked cakes. 2nd picture is with cherry pie filling on bottom layer. 3rd picture is with the top layer added back on top of pie filling. 4th picture is a side view of the cake with the pie filling seen from the side. 5th picture is the completed cake with mini chocolate chips added.
