Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 1/4 cups sugar
2 tablespoons kirsch
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 pounds frozen black cherries (about 3 1/3 cup)
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pans
1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder, sifted, plus more for pans
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup sour cream
3 ounces chopped dark chocolate (1/2 cup), melted and cooled slightly
1 1/2 cups cake flour (not self-rising), sifted
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon gelatin

Steps:

  • Whisk together 1/3 cup sugar, kirsch, and cornstarch in a medium pot. Add cherries and any juices. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, over medium-high until thickened, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat, and let cool to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch metal baking pan. Line with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the long sides of the pan. Butter parchment.
  • Whisk cocoa with hot water in a medium bowl until smooth. Whisk in sour cream and melted chocolate; let cool. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in another medium bowl.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and 1 2/3 cups sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating to combine after each and scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in vanilla. With mixer on low, add flour mixture in two parts, alternating with the cocoa mixture and beginning and ending with the flour; beat until combined. Fold in 1 1/4 cups cherry filling; reserve remaining filling for topping.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan; smooth with an offset spatula. Bake until a cake tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Remove cake from pan.
  • Transfer cake to a serving platter. In a small saucepan over low, heat gelatin and 2 tablespoons water over low, stirring constantly, just until gelatin melts, about 3 minutes. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk heavy cream and remaining 1/4 cup sugar on medium-high. Once soft peaks form, slowly add gelatin mixture with the mixer running until combined. Frost top of cooled cake and top with remaining cherry filling.

Tips:

- To ensure a moist and flavorful cake, make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients blend together more easily and result in a smoother batter. - For a richer chocolate flavor, use high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%. - If you don't have fresh cherries, you can use frozen or canned cherries instead. Just be sure to drain them well before using. - To prevent the cake from sticking to the pan, grease and flour the pan thoroughly before pouring in the batter. You can also use a parchment paper liner for easy removal. - To test if the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. - For the perfect finishing touch, drizzle the cooled cake with chocolate ganache or a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk.

Conclusion:

With its rich chocolate flavor, tender crumb, and sweet cherry filling, this Chocolate Cherry Cake is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. It's perfect for any occasion, from birthdays to holidays to casual gatherings. So next time you're in the mood for a delicious and decadent dessert, give this recipe a try.
