INGREDIENTS
Syrup
- 1 1/2 cups cherry juice
- 1/2 (750 ml) bottle Prosecco
- 🧂 1 1/4 cups white sugar, divided
Cake
- 🥚 1 large egg
- 1 (10 ounce) bag bing cherries, thawed, divided
- 🌾 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 🧂 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 🧈 1 tablespoon butter
STEPS
Pour cherry juice, Prosecco, and sugar into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and cook at a lively simmer until syrupy and reduced by at least half, about 40 minutes.
Set aside 1 cup cherries for cake; add remaining cherries to syrup, and allow to cool. Syrup can be made several days in advance.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9x9-inch square baking pan with parchment.
Stir sugar and egg together in a bowl. Stir in the reserved 1 cup cherries. Add flour, baking soda, salt, vanilla, and butter and stir until flour disappears. Spread into the prepared baking pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. The cake will collapse in the center; this is expected.
Cool on a wire rack to room temperature. Cut cake into squares, and spoon a generous amount of syrup with cherries over each serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
