How to Make Maraschino Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups granulated sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Add 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened; 1 cup milk, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
- Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes.
- Add another 1/3 cup milk and 4 large egg whites.
- Beat on medium speed for another 2 minutes, until well combined.
- Divide batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cakes cool, prepare your favorite white frosting. Substitute 2 tablespoons of cherry juice for 2 tablespoons of the liquid called for in your frosting recipe.
- Once cakes are completely cool, frost the layers and the top of the cake. Decorate with maraschino cherry stems.
