Recipe Introduction


Have made this several times. It is tasty. Might need to adjust the almond extract, I think it needs more. Could probably benefit from a light glaze.

List of Ingredients




2 cups all-purpose flour (8.50 oz)
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 1/2 cups white sugar (10.50 oz)
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup maraschino cherries, drained and halved *I use Trader Joe's sour cherries. more than a cup would be great. I just chop them. BE CAREFUL for pits!
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Recipe



1.Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8 inch tube pan. Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
2.In a large bowl, cream together the butter, cream cheese, and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla and almond extract. Beat in the flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated. Dredge cherries in 1/4 cup flour, then fold into batter. Spread into prepared pan.
3.Bake in the preheated oven for 80 minutes**, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

** takes much less time in my oven. Maybe my pan is smaller I use my bundt pan.
