Cherry Cake

So I haven’t posted anything in a while due to starting a new job, so I thought I’d start back with something simple but yummy, Cherry Cake. I’ve had cherry cake lots of time but this was the first time using this recipe, and I was so pleased with how it turned out, as were my family! So here’s how it’s done.

  1. Preheat oven to 160◦ and grease a large cake tin  and line with greaseproof paper.
  2. Beat together the sugar and margarine until smooth and creamy.
  3. Beat eggs into the mixture one at a time.
  4. Add in the two different flours, salt, baking powder and ground almonds and mix.
  5. Then add your chopped glacé cherries make sure it’s mixed well to make sure the cherries are spread all throughout the cake.
    I chopped mine into quarters.
  6. Pour into your cake tin and bake in the oven for an hour and 25mins.
  7. Take out of the oven when it’s golden brown and slightly shrinking from the sides.
  8. Leave to cool, make yourself a cuppa tea and enjoy!
