Chocolate Cherry Bars is a recipe my mom started making many years ago. I’ve served it countless times to company over the years and people almost always ask for a second piece (especially men!). No, these are not healthy. But they are a delicious treat! If you like the flavor of chocolate covered cherries, you will like this!

The other great thing about this recipe is you can easily keep all of the ingredients on hand so it makes a quick dessert in a hurry.

Cake mix names change all the time, but you want something rich and full of a dark chocolate for the base.

Enjoy!
