7. Once cooled, spread a layer of cherry pie filling on top of one cake layer. Place the second layer on top.
8. In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
9. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the whipped cream. Decorate with maraschino cherries and any remaining cherry pie filling.
