When it comes to desserts, a cherry cake always stands out. Whether it’s a special occasion or just a weekend dessert, a cherry cake is always welcomed. If you’re a baking enthusiast, or you just want to learn something new, then you’ll definitely enjoy this recipe.

Ingredients

For the cake:
– 2 cups of flour
– 2 teaspoons of baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon of salt
– 1 stick of unsalted butter, at room temperature
– 1 cup of sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup of milk
– 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

For the cherry filling:
– 2 cups of cherries, pitted and chopped
– 1/4 cup of sugar
– 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
– 1/4 cup of water

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 °F. Grease your cake pan with some butter or cooking spray.

2. In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt.

3. In a large bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer until it becomes creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

4. Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix well.

5. Gradually add the flour mixture into the butter mixture, alternating it with the milk until everything is well combined.

6. Add the vanilla extract and mix it in.

7. Pour the batter into the greased cake pan. Spread it evenly with a spatula.

8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until the cake turns golden brown and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

9. While the cake is baking, start preparing the cherry filling. Mix the sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan. Add the water and cherries and cook on medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring constantly until the cherries are soft and the mixture becomes thicker.

10. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before removing it from the pan.

11. Once the cake has cooled down, use a knife to cut it in half horizontally. Spread the cherry filling on one half of the cake and place the other half on top.

12. You can top it off with some whipped cream or icing sugar, and serve!

Tips
