- Heat oven to 350*F. Grease and flour a 12 cup bundt pan. In medium microwavable bowl, mix filling ingredients. Microwave on High 25 to 35 seconds,stirring every 15 seconds, until melted and smooth; set aside.
- In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, beat cake mix, water, oil, 1/2 tsp almond extract, the eggs and pudding mix on low speed about 1 minute, scraping bowl constantly. With rubber spatula, fold in cherries. Spoon batter into pan, spreading evenly. Carefully spoon filling in ring over batter, being careful not to let filling touch sides of pan.
