Red velvet cakes are so popular, and adding cherries to the mix just takes it to the next level. Not only is this cake visually stunning, but it also tastes amazing. This cake is made with a rich and creamy red velvet cake batter, and is filled with sweet and juicy cherries. The result is a moist and flavorful cake that will have everyone asking for seconds. Let's get started!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons red food coloring
  • 1 cup fresh cherries, pitted and halved
  • Optional: Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Pans



Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. Set aside.

Step 2: Make the Cake Batter



In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. In a measuring cup, combine the buttermilk and red food coloring. Alternately add the dry ingredients and the buttermilk mixture to the creamed mixture, beating just until incorporated.

Step 3: Bake the Cake



Pour the batter into the prepared pans and spread evenly. Arrange the cherries on top of the batter. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 4: Assemble and Serve the Cake



Once the cakes have cooled, place one layer on a plate or cake stand. Spread a thick layer of buttercream frosting over the top and spread with an offset spatula. Place the second layer on top and spread with a thin layer of buttercream frosting. Decorate with additional cherries, if desired. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired. Serve and enjoy!
