Black Forest Tiara Cake
From cold snowy Minnesota:
BLACK FOREST TIARA CAKE
1 Duncan Hines Devil's Food Cake Mix
3 eggs
1 1/3 c water
1/2 c vegetable oil
1/2 tsp almond extract
1 (8 oz) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 can cherry pie filling
For cake: Grease tiara pan; no need to flour. Grease 9 cupcake cups or line them with paper liners.
Place cake mix in mixing bowl, add eggs, water and oil. Blend on low speed of electric mixer until moistened. Mix at medium speed 2 minutes. Spread 3 cups batter into tiara pan. Divide leftover batter to make nine cupcakes. Bake cupcakes at 350 for 20-30 minutes and serve separately. Bake cake at 350 for 21-24 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool cake on rack 5-10 minutes. Remove from pan by inverting cake onto cooling rack. Cool completely and place on a serving platter.
For mousse: In medium bowl, fold almond extract into whipped topping. Spread evenly into well of cooled cake. Refrigerate half an hour. For topping: Spoon cherry pie filling on top of mousse, leaving an edge of mousse showing. Refrigerate two hours before serving. Makes 12 servings.
This is not quite what you had in mind, but it works for the tiara pan.
