This recipe is a definite keeper! Never fails to please. I agree that beating the batter well is the secret. Haven't tried it with frozen cherries yet.

I agree - too chewy. Not cake or pudding like. It tasted okay, but the texture was a little strange. Way better served warm.

Using juicy cherries and beating the batter well are the secrets to a sublime cake. The recipe is easy and a crowd pleaser

First, we used rum instead of the cognac/brandy. The cherry, rum, sugar mix was unbelievably good! The pudding cake itself was ok. I think it was too chewy, not really cake-like or pudding-like at all. Was going to give it 3 stars, but really love the cherry mix :)
