Provided by Chef mariajane

Categories     Dessert

Time 30m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (18 1/2 ounce) package devil's food cake mix
1 1/3 cups water
3 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce, divided
1 (8 ounce) container whipped topping, thawed
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 cup sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F Grease bottom only of 13x9 baking pan.
  • Prepare cake mix with water, eggs and oil according to package directions.
  • Add half cranberry sauce, mix, until well blended.
  • Pour into prepared pan.
  • Bake about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely on wire rack.
  • Meanwhile, place whipped topping in a medium sized bowl. Sift cocoa over whipped topping, fold mixture until well blended.
  • When cake has cooled, place remaining cranberry sauce in small microwaveable bowl, microwave on high 15 seconds or until softened. Spoon over cake, spread evenly. Top with whipped topping mix.
  • Sprinkle with almond pieces, just before serving.
  • TIP: Use a large container of whipped topping, and also toast the almonds in a 350F oven on a cookie sheet until slightly browned, this brings out the flavor.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before starting, measure and prep all ingredients. This ensures smooth and efficient baking.
  • Use quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients result in a better-tasting cake. Opt for real butter, dark chocolate, and plump cranberries.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can lead to a dense, dry cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This helps ensure even baking and prevents the cake from sinking in the middle.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This prevents the frosting from melting and sliding off the cake.

Conclusion:

This outrageously delicious chocolate cranberry fudge cake is a perfect treat for any occasion. With its moist, fudgy texture, rich chocolate flavor, and tangy cranberries, it's sure to be a hit. Follow these tips for a perfect cake every time.
