Craving for cherries? Cherries that perfectly match with chocolate and pistachio.
So, here’s a delicious cherry, chocolate and pistachio loaf cake.
Fast and easy to prepare, easy to carry, maybe for an outdoor lunch or dinner with friends or for a snack in the garden with children and parents.
Soft, moist….a real goodness of flavors.
Few simple ingredients for a dessert that you will surely appreciate.
I suggest you to use a kitchen scale to weigh the ingredients and a precision digital scale for the baking powder. The day ahead or a few hours in advance, wash the cherries and remove the pits.  Cut into 4/6 parts and then pat them dry and place the chocolate chips in the fridge. Heat fan oven at 300F - 150°C. Grease (or butter and flour) a loaf cake mould 7x3x3 inches (18x8x8 cm) and set aside. In the bowl of stand mixer, with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium/high speed for about 5 minutes (5/6 Kitchen aid). Add in 4 batches the lightly beaten whole eggs and combine, scraping down the sides when needed. Add the sifted flour, baking powder and salt and mix with a spatula until fully combined. Then, add the cherries, the pistachios and chocolate chips and mix until completely incorporated. Pour all the batter (510/520 g) inside the prepared mould, smooth the surface with a spatula and bake for 60 minutes, on the II level from the bottom. Reverse the cake on a silicone mat and let completely cool, room temperature. Using a 2 cm wide strip baking paper on the cake, dust with snow sugar. Brush the center of the cake with neutral glaze, garnish with finely chopped pistachios and a fresh cherry. Enjoy!
