    Description

    Mmm... chocolate cherry cake. What's even better: It's made on your grill with items you might just have laying around the house. Create 4 mini "pans" out of aluminum foil, mix up your batter, and place on the grill for a delicious dessert.

    Things To Grab

    • Heavy aluminum foil
    • Whisk
    • Medium bowl
    • Wooden toothpick
    • Small bowl

    Directions

    1. Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for indirect grilling over medium-high heat (350 degrees). Cut 4 (12x9-inch) sheets of heavy foil. Fold 1-inch up on each edge of foil; spray with nonstick spray and set aside. 

    2. Whisk together eggs and cake mix in a medium bowl. Fold in cherry pie filling. Divide and pour batter in center of each prepared foil sheet. Fold up long sides, leaving 3-inch opening on top; double-fold short sides to close packets. 

    3. Grill packets 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool slightly. 

    4. Meanwhile, for icing, stir together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle icing over top of each cake. Serve with ice cream, if desired.
