Outrage as Widower Sells Late Wife's Beloved Cake Recipe to Local Bakery

A Replica of Beloved Wife’s Dark Chocolate Cherry Cake Recipe

When this man’s wife passed away three years ago, he was left with a broken heart and a longing for her delicious dark chocolate cherry cake. Being a dreadful cook, he tried recreating the dessert from his wife’s scribbled notes but failed repeatedly. Despite his request for his adult children to help, they refused. So, he turned to a local bakery for help, only to find a mutually beneficial solution.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups sugar
• 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
• ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup buttermilk
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. Take a 10-inch bundt cake pan and grease it liberally with cooking spray or baker’s grease.
3. In a mixing bowl, place sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt and mix well.
4. In another mixing bowl, place buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract and whisk until everything is well combined.
5. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and fold until fully combined.
6. Next, stir in the cherry pie filling and chocolate chips.
7. Pour the batter into the greased pan and smooth the surface with a spatula.
8. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
9. Cool the cake completely before inverting it onto a platter.

This recipe is an exact replica of the beloved wife’s dark chocolate cherry cake. You can make it whenever you’re missing her and, in doing so, keep her cherished memory alive.
