Time 1h10m

Yield 1 bundt cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (18 ounce) box devil's food cake mix
3 eggs
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon almond flavoring
19 ounces cherry pie filling
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup cherry brandy
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons sweet butter
2 tablespoons table cream

Steps:

  • Mix cake mix with cocoa, beaten eggs, almond flavouring, melted chips and oil. Use a two cup glass measure to melt the chips and oil. Add cherry brandy if using. Fold in cherry pie filling. Turn into greased bundt pan.
  • Bake 350 degrees for 55 minutes. The residue heat will finish the cooking. Cool, turn out onto a plate and glaze.
  • Glaze:.
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • 2 tbsp butter.
  • 2 tbsp table cream.
  • Microwave on medium the chips, butter, and milk until melted . Stir in 1/2 cup icing sugar ( optional ) Cool and pour over cake. I use the same two cup Pyrex measuring cup to melt the chips & oil to put into the cake, and save it unwashed to make the glaze. No point in wasting a bit of chocolate! One time I made it, I used a bit more cherries ( almost 1/2 can more ) and it was the best one yet! After I glazed it and let it cool, I dribbled some of the cherry goo over the glaze to keep it moist- went over huge in my home!
  • This cake is best made the day before to allow the flavours to get happy!

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.
