Outrageous Cherry Dr Pepper Cake is an incredibly flavorful cherry chocolate cake recipe with just 5 ingredients that will blow your mind!
Chocolate Cherry Dr Pepper Cake
I almost called this a chocolate dump cake, because from frosting to cake, this simple Dr Pepper cake using cake mix takes just 5 ingredients and it is perhaps the easiest and tastiest cake ever.
The rich, decadent and perfectly tender cake melts in your mouth. Topped with homemade maraschino cherry frosting is it truly a flavor explosion.
And it is and ready to toss in the oven in a flash. Honestly I don't usually make dump cakes, but sometime you just really need an easy recipe that will impress a crowd.
Truly a mouthwatering dessert, now please excuse me while I take a moment to gather my thoughts. All I can think about is this cake. {{slurp}}

Dr Pepper Cake Using Cake Mix
Don't cherries make you think of summer?
I am not sure what the connection is but bright red cherries automatically bring my mind to summer and that is exactly what I was thinking when I picked up some Dr. Pepper Cherry.
I knew right away I wanted to make a delicious treat with Dr. Pepper Cherry. I mean really isn't that the best idea ever?
I had heard about dump cakes and I decided to give it a try, but kick it up a notch.
You know, bold flavors are kinda part of who I am so I added the Dr Pepper Cherry soda and maraschino cherries to the cake mix and then made a super easy maraschino cherry buttercream to go on top.
All with just 5 ingredients. This cake is truly outrageous. Rich, moist and loaded with your favorite flavors.
Oh my word! I tell you this cake tastes just like summer.

Helpful Tips to Make Cherry Dr Pepper Cake:
- I know people love diet soda, but this is not the place for it.
- You can substitute Cherry Coke if you prefer, but the Cherry Dr Pepper gives it an amazing flavor.
- To avoid pink fingers, wear kitchen gloves when working with the cherries.
- This cake keeps for about 3-4 days on the kitchen counter wrapped tightly with plastic wrap. During the summer, or if your kitchen is warm, store in the refrigerator.
What you will need to make Cherry Dr Pepper Dump Cake:
- 9x13 baking pan – the perfect pan for blondies, brownies and many other delicious desserts. I love this one with the cover.
