I substituted coconut oil for shortening, and I added a tsp of almond flavoring. It took about 40 minutes to bake the layers. I used two layers for one cake, and made a half cake out of the third layer. I made the frosting with coconut oil instead of butter, and no coconut or nuts. I must have added more cherry juice than the recipe intended, because I had to add extra powdered sugar to make it stiff enough to stay between the cake layers. I frosted only the tops of the cake layers. I made a chocolate drizzle (about 1 cup chocolate chips, a tsp of coconut oil, and a few Tbsp of milk, heated in microwave and stirred till smooth) for the top of the top layer of both the cake and the half cake.
