Method

Pour the jar of sour cherries through a colander, discarding the juices (or reserve and see tip below). Carefully fold the sour cherries into the cake batter.

Grease a loaf pan and dust with a little flour. Pour in the batter and bake for about 45 minutes. Test with a skewer whether the cake is baked through. It will smell divine and be pulling away from the sides when done.

Tip: Instead of discarding the cherry juices, mix 1 tbsp of the cherry juice with 100 g sifted icing sugar and a drop of almond extract, and mix thoroughly. Drizzle over the cake when cool.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (top/bottom heat).

Melt the chocolate gently in a bain marine, then allow to cool slightly.

Meanwhile, beat the butter with the sugar and a pinch of salt using a stand mixer until pale and creamy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the cooled melted chocolate and almond extract.

In a separate bowl, sieve the flour, baking powder and cocoa, add the Sweet Allrounder, and mix thoroughly. Fold into the wet ingredients with the milk. Do not overmix.
