THANKS!How do I make a delicious chocolate cherry skillet cake?

In summary, to make the Chocolate Cherry Skillet Cake you will need all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, milk, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, chopped cherries, chocolate chips, and chopped almonds (optional). While a cast iron skillet is recommended, a regular cake pan can also be used. The cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for longer. Frozen cherries can be used, but must be thawed and drained before adding to the batter. The cherries should be chopped to ensure even distribution in the cake.
