This White Chocolate Cherry Bundt Cake is one of those easy summer desserts that I can\u2019t get enough of.<\/p>\n

By no means is it light in the sense that it\u2019s particularly healthy but the flavor of it is just light and subtle! It works great as a simple portable potluck dessert during the summer months, but it\u2019s also excellent during the holiday season when many desserts tend to be overly sweet and indulgent.  You can use frozen cherries so yes, this can be made all year round.<\/p>\n

The red cherries also give it a cheerful and festive look, so why not add some almond essence to the batter and serve it for Christmas. Oh, I am glad you asked – yes, you CAN add brandy cherries instead of fresh cherries.<\/p>\n

You can serve this white chocolate cherry bundt cake with just a dusting of icing sugar and it will be just perfect! I do not think it needs a sweet glaze but if you have a serious sweet tooth, you can glaze it with melted white chocolate. A cream cheese glaze would be awesome as well. <\/p>\n

The secret to the moist cake batter? Vanilla Greek Yogurt.<\/h2>\n

Adding greek yogurt or sour cream into a cake recipe produces a wonderfully moist bundt cake. The addition of ground almonds makes it even richer and more tender! <\/p>\n

Each bite of cake is filled with the sweet melted white chocolate, and vanilla with a burst of tangy sweetness from the sour cherries. This cake was definitely a winner in my book! <\/p>\n

 Tips for baking with fresh cherries<\/h2>\n

For this white chocolate cherry bundt cake recipe, I am using sour cherries as we have them in our garden and they add such a nice contrast to the sweet chocolate batter. You can use sweet cherries, frozen or canned. Brandy cherries? YES YES YES! <\/p>\n

I cut the cherries in quarters to make sure they were a little lighter and would not sink entirely to the bottom. The traditional trick of dusting them with some of the flour from the cake is definitely worth the 3 seconds spent.<\/p>\n

Can I bake this bundt cake in a loaf pan? <\/h2>\n

The cake baked up well in my favorite bundt pan\"\" but you can make it in two regular size loaf pans. That would work just as well. However, different sized pans will result in different baking times. Just watch it and let the toothpick test be your guide. Start checking after 30 minutes to see when your cake is perfectly baked.<\/p>\n
