Anyone remember the Duncan Hines Tiara pans from way back in the day?


Well I do. Me and my Mom loved this thing, especially the Black Forest Torte. Several months ago I found one of these pans at Goodwill. This past week I dug it out and decided to make this yummy dessert, with a few tweakes.

First I used a box mix, Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge. I mixed it up and poured about 3 cups into the tiara pan and baked at 335 until cooked all the way thru. I immediately inverted the pan onto a wire rack to cool. Once cooled, I whipped up some chocolate ganache with chocolate chips and heavy whipping cream and poured a layer into the well of the cake and spread it around and up the sides a little. Next came some yummy cool whip and then cherrie pie filling over that. Last I drizzled a little more chocolate ganache over the top. Now I forgot that it should chill in the fridge for an hour or two and we just ate it but I quickly remembered this step when all the filling started falling out. But it still tasted DIVINE!!!



Mother when you come visit me I will make this for you!!
