List of Ingredients
1 jar (10 oz.) maraschino cherries with stems
1 pkg. (16 oz.) one-step angel food cake mix
2/3 c. semisweet chocolate chips
1-1/2 c. ‘cold’ fat-free milk
1 pkg. (1.4 oz.) sugar-free instant chocolate pudding mix
1 carton (8 oz.) frozen reduced-fat whipped topping
Recipe
Drain cherries, reserving juice; set cherries aside. Add enough cold water to cherry juice to measure 1-1/4 cups. In a mixing bowl, beat cake mix and cherry juice mixture on low speed until moistened. Beat on medium for 1 minute. Gently spoon into an ungreased 10-in. tube pan. Cut through batter with a knife to remove air pockets.
Bake on the lowest oven rack at 350º for 40-50 minutes or until dark golden brown and cracks feel very dry. Immediately invert pan onto a wire rack; cool completely, about 1 hour. Run a knife around sides of cake and remove from pan.
In a microwave or heavy saucepan, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Pat cherries dry with paper towels. Holding cherries by the stem, dip in chocolate and place on waxed paper. Refrigerate until set.
In a bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix until thickened, about 2 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes; whisk for 1 minute or until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Slice cake; serve with mousse and dipped cherries.
