Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan. In a large bowl, combine 1 box vanilla cake mix, 3 eggs, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 1 cup water. Beat until smooth, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 25-30 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack, about 30 minutes.
Step 3
In a chilled bowl, whip 1 1/2 cups heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Spread over cooled cake.
Step 4
Top with 1 cup fresh cherries. Slice and serve.
