Chocolate Cherry Cake (dairy-free) image

To make a bigger batch, multiply the recipe by 1.5 and use a 13x9-inch pan. You may need to bake the cake a few minutes longer.

Provided by Shiran

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup (240 ml) hot water
1/3 cup (30 g/1 oz) cocoa powder
1 cup (140 g/5 oz) all-purpose flour, sifted
1 cup (200 g/7 oz) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable/canola oil
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups (230 g/8 oz) fresh cherries, pitted and halved (for other options, read above post)
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chocolate chips or chunks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F/180C and grease an 8x8-inch pan.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together hot water and cocoa powder until smooth. Set aside to let cool slightly until warm.
  • In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another medium bowl, mix together eggs, oil, vanilla extract, and water-cocoa mixture. Add egg mixture into flour mixture and mix with a rubber spatula just until combined. Do not overmix-the less you mix, the lighter the cake will be.
  • In a small bowl toss cherries with 2 teaspoons flour in order to prevent cherries from sinking during baking. Add cherries and chocolate chips to cake batter and fold just until combined.
  • Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean (repeat testing if your toothpick runs into a cherry). Allow cake to cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Dust the top with powdered sugar or top with chocolate ganache. Serve at room temperature.
  • Cake can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

CHERRY CHOCOLATE CAKE



Cherry Chocolate Cake image

This is a very tossed-together Black Forest Cake, or, as I like to say, when I am too lazy to bring out the piping bag and tips, it's RUSTIC. It has all the components of the classic German torte, without the fuss. Layers of dark chocolate cake, fresh whipped cream and sweet cherries spiked with Kirschwasser ("cherry water," or clear sour cherry brandy). These flavors are among the most celebrated combinations in the history of pastry making for good reason. This swoon worthy homemade version is super-fast and easy to put together.

Time 2h5m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

Unsalted butter, for greasing
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder (it doesn't seem to make a difference if you use natural or Dutch-process), sift if lumpy
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 egg white
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup hot coffee
1/4 cup rum or brandy (if you opt out of the booze then use more coffee)
3 cups fresh or frozen sweet dark cherries, pitted (if you are using fresh cherries you will need to add 1/4 cup water)
2 tablespoons kirschwasser or brandy
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 cups whipping cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and prepare two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper and butter.
  • Combine the sugar, flour, baking soda and salt together in a large bowl and whisk until combined, set aside. Whisk together, eggs, buttermilk, oil and vanilla until well combined. Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth. Slowly add the hot coffee and rum to the batter and whisk until totally blended and smooth, about 2 minutes. The batter will be quite runny.
  • Divide the batter into the prepared pans and bake for about 25 minutes or until set when tested with a toothpick. Cool completely.
  • For the cherry filling and topping: Place the cherries and kirsch in a saucepot. Whisk together the sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl and then add to the cherries.
  • Add the sugar mixture to the cherries and cook over low heat until the cherries come to a boil and the liquid thickens and is transparent, about 10 minutes. If you are using fresh cherries, you will want to cook them until the fruit is slightly tender.
  • Transfer to a bowl and cool to room temperature.
  • To assemble the cake: Whip the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla to stiff peaks. Place one layer of the cake on a serving platter. Spread half of the whipped cream over the top. Distribute half the cherries over the cream. Repeat with the next layers of cake, cream and cherries. Serve immediately or place it in the refrigerator.

CHOCOLATE-CHERRY CAKE



Chocolate-Cherry Cake image

Topped with a pompadour of airy whipped cream frosting - which tastes comfortingly of hot cocoa - this cake is reminiscent of Black Forest gâteau but with more chocolaty depth. The cake's dark chocolate flavor is enhanced by Dutch-processed cocoa powder, which produces a much deeper, Oreo-like chocolaty taste than natural unsweetened cocoa powder. A glossy, cherry-red layer of preserves keeps the crumb moist and tender, and a splash of almond extract evokes the aromatic bittersweetness of kirsch or maraschino cherries (cherries are, after all, in the same family as almonds). Don't forget the actual cherries on top; they'll make you happy.

Time 1h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup/118 milliliters extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing pan
1 1/4 cups/250 grams granulated sugar
1 cup/128 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 cup/56 grams Dutch-processed cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 large eggs
3/4 cup/180 milliliters whole milk
1 teaspoon pure almond extract
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt or 3/4 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
1 cup/305 grams cherry preserves (see Tip)
1/4 cup/50 grams granulated sugar
1/4 cup/28 grams Dutch-processed cocoa powder
Pinch of kosher salt
1/4 cup boiling hot water
2 cups/473 milliliters cold heavy whipping cream
Fresh red cherries, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare the cake: Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan with olive oil.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa powder and baking powder until evenly distributed and no lumps remain. To a separate large bowl, add the 1/2 cup oil, eggs, milk, almond extract and salt and whisk until smooth, at least 30 seconds. Gently whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until the last streak of flour disappears.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and tap gently against the counter to pop excess air bubbles. Bake until a skewer or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan.
  • Microwave the cherry preserves in a small bowl in 30-second intervals or in a small saucepan over medium heat until looser and slightly liquidy. Spread the preserves evenly over the cooled cake.
  • Make the frosting: In a large bowl, combine the sugar, cocoa powder and salt and pour over the hot water. Either by hand or with an electric mixer, whisk until smooth. Add the heavy cream and continue whisking until billowy soft peaks form. When you turn the whisk upside-down, a peak of cream should flop over slightly like a Santa hat. Spread the frosting over the cake and, if using, garnish with the cherries. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
