1 pk Devil's food cake mix
    1/4 c  Sugar
    1/2 c  Water
      2 tb Cherry flavored liqueur
  2 1/2 c  Whipped cream
    1/4 c  Sifted confectioners sugar
    1/4 c  Cherry flavored liqueur
     16 oz Maraschino cherries; drained
    3/4 c  Semisweet chocolate mini
           -chips
  Prepare cake according to package instructions, spooning
  batter into 3 greased and floured 8" cake pans. Bake at 350
  for 20-25 min. or until wooden pick inserted in middle
  comes out clean.  Cool in pans on wire racks for ten
  minutes.  Remove from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
  Combine sugar and water in small saucepan.  Bring to a
  boil, reduce heat, and simmer 5 min.  Stir in 2 T. cherry
  liqueur and cool. Brush syrup on top of cake layers; let
  stand for 5 min. Beat whipping cream at medium speed until
  foamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until soft
  peaks form.  Slowly add 1/4 c. cherry liqueur...gradually,
  while beating.
  Spread on 1st cake layer, sprinkling with 1/3 of chopped
  cherries and 1/4 c. chocolate morsels. Add second cake
  layer; repeat.  Top with third cake layer and spread top
  and sides with remaining whipped cream mixture. Sprinkle
  with remaining cherries and chocolate morsels. I had a
  little whipped cream left over, so I piped a few rosettes
  on top, placing a whole maraschino cherry in each.  Store
  in fridge.
