CHOCOLATE-COVERED CHERRY CAKE



Chocolate-Covered Cherry Cake image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 42m

Yield 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Vegetable oil spray for misting
1 package (18.25 ounces) plain devil's food cake mix or devil's food mix with pudding
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure almond extract
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup whole milk
1 package (6 ounces; 1 cup) semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly mist a 13- by 9-inch baking pan with vegetable oil spray. Set the pan aside.
  • Place the cake mix, cherry pie filling, eggs, and almond extract in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more, scraping the sides down again if needed. The batter should look thick and well blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with the rubber spatula. Place the pan in the oven.
  • Bake the cake until it springs back when lightly pressed with your finger and just starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and place it on a wire rack while you prepare the glaze.
  • For the glaze, place the sugar, butter, and milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil. Boil, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips. When the chips have melted and the glaze is smooth, pour it over the warm cake so it covers the entire surface. The glaze will be thin but will firm up. Cool the cake for 20 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
  • Store this cake, covered in aluminum foil, at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Or freeze the cake, wrapped in foil, for up to 6months. Thaw the cake overnight on the counter before serving.

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.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

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 COLA CAKE



Chocolate Cherry Cola Cake image

I love to celebrate birthdays with the crew and my bandmates. When we're on the road, it's nice to have the band family celebrate. Jimi's birthday falls at the end of October, and I sometimes make this silly chocolate cherry cola cake for him, decorating the top with chocolate cherry cordials or gummy candies. I always let him choose what he's got a hankering for, and it's often this.

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cake. Use real butter, not margarine, and use good-quality chocolate.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately. This is important for any baking recipe, but it's especially important for chocolate cake. If you don't measure your ingredients correctly, your cake may not turn out as expected.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake at the right temperature. The temperature of your oven can affect the texture of your cake. Bake the cake at the temperature specified in the recipe.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
