Chocolate chip cherry cake
A simple yet lovely cake which is studded with chocolate chips and cherries. You can use chopped plain chocolate instead of the chips, if desired. You could also try white chocolate instead for a twist. Simply enjoy as is without any icing, or dust with a little bit of icing sugar for a pretty presentation.

We found this cake way too heavy for our tastes. Presentation was an issue because the texture seemed terribly uneven and I wasn't happy with that at all. Flavors were good but probably won't make this one again anytime soon. Sorry. - 19 Apr 2003 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
