How to Make Chocolate And Cherry Torte

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the cherries.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the torte cool in the pan for 10 minutes before running a knife around the edges to loosen. Remove the sides of the springform pan and let the torte cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Dust with powdered sugar before serving (optional).
