ADVERTISE WITH US ADVERTISEMENT REVIEWSMORE MEMBER REVIEWS Reviewed on Dec. 7, 2006 by Cookies I have the same recipe and make it at Christmas every year. My ingredients for this recipe is the same but my method is a bit different. The night before, I pace the cherries in a seive over a bowl to drain throughly so they are dry (so that they don't bleed into the cake and make it pink.) I sometimes use more cherries then asked for as I love cherries. Keep the juice so that you can make a glaze with icing sugar & almond extract. I spread about one-third on the bottom of a bundt pan ( Bundt pan sprinkled with red sugar)I then arrange one-third of the cherries evenly on the batter, then repeat with two more layers of batter followed by cherries; spreading evenly with spatula. Bake for 60 minutes. Drizzle glaze over top. For an added touch, sift icing sugar over the top as well. Yummy.Very presentable! 13 users found this review helpful Reviewed on Dec. 6, 2003 by MELON03 I made this cake for Father's Day, and it tasted sooooo good! It was creamy and fluffly, and even though it's a little bit fattening......it is worth it! 11 users found this review helpful Reviewed on Aug. 18, 2003 by Mimosa Good and pretty cake. I didn't have maraschino cherries, so I used candied ones. 9 users found this review helpful MORE MEMBER REVIEWS ADVERTISE WITH US ADVERTISEMENT Quick Links Recently Viewed Recipes My Recipe Box Shopping List RELATED PHOTOS FOR THIS RECIPE POST A PHOTO It's a new year.
