Ingredients

1 package gluten-free vanilla muffin or cake mix
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
3/4 cup pitted and sliced Chilean Cherries
1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate

Cherry Glaze
1/4 cup pitted Chilean Cherries
1 cup powdered sweetener
1/8 teaspoon almond extract

Directions

1. Make muffin/cake mix according to package directions, but adding 1/4 cup less liquid than called for. Stir in almond extract. Fold in sliced cherries and dark chocolate.
2. Prepare a heart-shaped mini-cake tin by spraying with nonstick cooking spray. Scoop batter into heart-shaped tin, filling each tin 2/3 of the way with batter. Bake in a preheated oven at 350º, for 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
3. Remove and let cool.
4. To make Cherry Glaze, add all ingredients to a mini blender or processor and blend on high until smooth. Add more powdered sweetener if needed and blend again.
5. Drizzle Cherry Glaze onto Cherry Almond Heart Cakes, and sprinkle with chopped dark chocolate if desired. Enjoy!
