This chocolate cherry cake is one of the most flavorful cakes I’ve made. The recipe came about accidentally. I was updating our German chocolate cake and ended up with 2 perfect chocolate cake layers. Not wanting them to go to waste, I used what I had on hand to make a cake for the weekend.

While assembling the cake, there were a couple of times that I laughed at myself thinking that I had ruined it but instead something remarkable happened. This chocolate cake lights up your taste buds in several spots at once.

The kirsch and cherries amplify the chocolate in an intense and delicious way. Try a slice and you’ll know what I mean! I was surprised that the kids enjoyed it as well despite the adult flavors and they slept so well afterwards (I kid, I kid!) – the kirsch is not overbearing at all.

Also, here’s a peek behind the scenes with my cute little assistant. We’re still working on the “assistant” part. I’m so grateful to work from home. I often think about my 12 hour night shifts working as an RN three days in a row and how torn I felt about it.

Thank YOU for reading my blog, trying my recipes and sharing them with the ones you love. It’s because of you that I get to do this full time. I’m truly thankful for you, my friends! This chocolate cherry cake is for you 🙂

2. Whisk together 1 cup flour and 1/2 cup cocoa powder and sift in thirds into egg batter, folding with a spatula between each addition. Fold just until no streaks of flour remain, scraping from the bottom to get any hidden pockets of flour; do not over-mix or you will deflate the batter.

3. Gently fold in 1/2 tsp vanilla and 4 Tbsp room temp melted butter, folding as you add butter in a slow stream and scraping the bowl to make sure butter isn’t pooling at the bottom. Fold just until incorporated – don’t overmix! Divide batter equally between two prepared cake pans and bake right away at 350˚F for 20-25 minutes (my oven took 22 min), or until a toothpick comes out clean.

    I am pretty sure it is my fault, but it was a complete waste. I have followed instructions carefully though. Looks like one cup of sugar was not able to fluff up eggs enough. But I made tres leches and that one turned out very good.

      Hi Marina, 1 cup of sugar is enough for the recipe to work. Make sure you have room temperature eggs and aren’t using a coarse grain sugar which doesn’t incorporate as readily. Also if using something besides a stand mixer, you will need to give it longer to beat or the cake won’t rise properly. I hope that helps.

    Natasha, this cake is delicious and kind of easy to make. Next time I am thinking to add a layer of meringues( trying to recreate my husband’s favorite cake from the local bakery in Brooklyn,NY). When would you recommend to add meringue layer before or after “the cherry mix”? I thinking to add some on top too. Thanks.

      Hi Irina, I think it would work best after the cherry mixture but be sure there is a layer of cream between the cherry layer and the meringue layer so the meringue doesn’t soften too quickly from the cherry juices. I’m so curious to know how your cake turns out!! 🙂

    I love your cake recipes. I’ve baked two already in the past two weeks. For those who don’t want to buy Kirsch or can’t find it, I used brandy that I had on hand. It was delicious and very complimenting to all the flavors. I also use frozen berries when I can’t find frozen/jarred/canned cherries or fresh are out of season. Those work well too. I also used vanilla rum in pineapple filling that I put between layers of your non chocolate European sponge cake. I used the drained pineapple juice to make a syrup. That worked very well too. Thanks for all your hard work. My brother said this cake was the best he’s ever had!

      Hi Desi, yes that is correct. This is a classic European sponge cake base – watch this video to see how and why it works. It rises from the volume of the eggs. You can add 1/2 tsp baking powder but I haven’t found it to be necessary in this recipe. I usually don’t add it when I make it. Just BE SURE to beat the eggs and sugar for the time that the recipe specifies.

    I’ve got a weird substitution question. I was wondering if I could substitute cherry pie filling instead of the syrup. I cannot put the liqueur in it; my partner’s unit is going to be consuming this on duty so I can’t use a drop of alcohol. The pie filling I have is basically cherries, sugar, and water.

    Looks amazing! This reminds me of the way my mom used to make p’yana vishnya (or drunken cherry cake). She would make one big cake layer, carefully cut off the very top, scoop out the middle and mix the crumbs with vodka/rum soaked cherries and condensed milk. Then she would put it back in, close it up and pour chocolate ganache over it.. (where’s the “drool” emoticon when you need one) Ok I guess it’s not really the same but the filling reminded me of it and now I want some! Good job on your creativity!

      I love the idea of using condensed milk in the center, that sounds wonderful! I know right! I wish there was such a thing as a drool 😋 when you need one.
