The original recipe called for canned pineapple as the fruit, a yellow cake mix, and walnuts instead of the almonds. But I like chocolate and cherries together and almonds go well with cherries. Be sure to let this cool to set up after baking. I also tried it with a brownie mix, and it was pretty good!
