How to Make Cherry Topped Almond Fudge Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the whole eggs one at a time, then stir in the almond extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg whites, milk, applesauce, and water.
  7. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the batter until just combined.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared springform pan.
  9. Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top of the batter.
  10. Place the springform pan on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
  11. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan for 30 minutes.
  13. Carefully run a knife around the edges of the pan to loosen the cake.
  14. Remove the sides of the springform pan.
  15. Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack.
  16. Once the cake is completely cool, spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the top.
  17. Serve chilled, optionally topped with Cool Whip or ice cream.
