OUTRAGEOUS CHERRY DR PEPPER CAKE RECIPE - (4/5)



Outrageous Cherry Dr Pepper Cake Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by á-46109

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (15.25 ounce) box super moist chocolate fudge cake mix (dry)
12 ounces Dr. Pepper Cherry® (room temperature)
1 (18 ounce) jar maraschino cherries, divided
2 (1 cup) sticks salted butter (room temperature)
7 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13x2 baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside. In a large bowl combine cake mix and soda. Whisk until combined. Set aside. Remove 24 cherries from the jar, remove stems and cut cherries into fourths. Add cut cherries to cake batter. Whisk again until combined. Pour batter into prepared baking pan. Smooth with spatula so cake is even. Place cake in the center of the oven and bake 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Place baking pan on a cooling rack and allow cake (still in pan) to cool, about 2 hours. If you need to rush that you can pop it in the fridge or the freezer. Meanwhile: Add butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or place in a large bowl and use and hand mixer). Beat butter until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add sugar 1 cup at a time until it is all incorporated (beating between each addition). Add 3 ounces (6 tablespoons) maraschino cherry juice from the jar and beat until mixture is light and fluffy. Frost the cake with all of the icing and garnish with remaining cherries. COOK'S NOTES: Do not add the ingredients that the cake mix calls for. This recipe is just for the dry mix. If icing is too thick, add more cherry juice 1 tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency, beating in between each addition. If it is too thin add powdered sugar 1 tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency, beating in between each addition.

Categories     Chocolate

Number Of Ingredients 16

Cake:
2 cups Dr. Pepper (do NOT use diet)
1 cup dark unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
icing:
1/2 cup butter
1 cup cocoa
6 tablespoon Dr. Pepper
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 lb confectioners sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Generously butter and flour a 10-inch bundt pan. You may also use a 9 x 12 inch pan. In a small saucepan, heat the Dr. Pepper, cocoa powder, and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted. Add the sugars and whisk until dissolved. Remove from the heat and let cool. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs until just beaten, then whisk them into the cooled cocoa mixture until combined. Gently fold the flour mixture into the cocoa mixture. The batter will be slightly lumpy--do not over-beat. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through the baking time, until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Cooking time may be less for the 9 x 12 inch pan. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Gently loosen the sides of the cake from the pan and turn it out onto the rack. Ice cake when almost cool. For icing: heat butter, cocoa and Dr. Pepper over medium heat until gently boiling. Make sure to whisk to remove any lumps. Remove from heat and add vanilla and sugar. Mix until smooth. Pour over cake and let cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your cake the best flavor and texture. If possible, use organic or locally sourced ingredients.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: This is important for any baking recipe, but it's especially important for Dr. Pepper cake, which has a delicate balance of flavors.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake at the correct temperature: The cake should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If the oven is too hot, the cake will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from becoming runny.

Conclusion:

Dr. Pepper cake is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and flavorful cake layers and creamy frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit. Whether you're a fan of Dr. Pepper or just looking for a new and exciting cake recipe, you won't be disappointed with Dr. Pepper cake.
