Easy cake with cherries and curd cheese

This cake is super simple to make, requires only a few essential ingredients, and tastes delicious! The cherries add a nice fruity touch, and the pink glaze looks great and creates a sugary finish to this cake. 

You can easily swap out the cherries for other fruits like blueberries or sliced apricots.

So let's get started!


Recipe:

Ingredients: 

  • 125g soft butter
  • 200g sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 250g curd cheese
  • 300g flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • as many cherries as you desire ( I am using cherries out of a jar but fresh ones do work as well)
  • optional: vanilla extract
Instructions:

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 175°C/347°F. 
  2. In a bowl, whisk together butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until fluffy.
  3. Slowly start adding one egg at a time and whisk until fully incorporated.
  4. Next, add the curd cheese.
  5. Lastly, mix flour and baking powder, before you add it to your wet ingredients.
  6. Add your cherries, if you want, dust them in flour before adding them- this way they do not sink all the way to the bottom of the cake but spread evenly.
  7. Bake your cake for about 50 minutes in the preheated oven, using a square baking tin.
  8. After the cake has cooled down, make a glaze out of cherry juice and powdered sugar.
  9. Decorate the cake to your liking and enjoy!

Pflaumen Cupcakes mit dunkler Schokolade und Zimt-Frosting

Wenn Sie auf der Suche nach einem perfekten, einfachen und schnellen Herbstrezept sind, das wie ein sonniger Herbsttag schmeckt, dann ist dieses Rezept genau das Richtige für Sie. Es besteht aus einem einfachen Muffinteig mit Pflaumen und Zartbitterschokolade und wird mit einer schnellen, butterfreien Zimt-Kaffee-Creme verfeinert.
