ICED CHERRY CAKE

Steps:

• Set the oven to 180°C/ 160°C fan/ gas mark 4/ 350°F
• Grease a 2lb loaf tin with butter or use a paper liner
• Halve the cherries, then wash in warm water and dry. This will remove the syrup and stop them from sinking too much. Quarter them if you want a better distribution. If you're short of time, don't bother to wash. The cherries may sink but the cake will still taste wonderful.
• Put all the ingredients except the cherries into a large bowl and mix well with a mixer or in a food processor.(Flour, baking powder, salt, butter, sugar, eggs, ground almonds, milk, vanilla extract)
• Add the cherries and fold in with a large spoon until they are evenly distributed through the mixture.
• Put the cake mixture into the prepared tin
• Cook for 60-75 minutes until well risen and golden and a skewer comes out clean. Test after an hour.If the top starts to brown before the centre is cooked, cover with baking parchment or foil
• Take the cake out of the oven and leave in the tin for 15 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.
• Sieve the icing sugar and add enough hot water to make a smooth icing that will spread but not run
• Spread the icing over the top of the cake
• Cut the cherries in half and arrange on top.

BERRIES-AND-CHERRIES ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Combine vodka and 1/3 cup sugar; gently stir in cherries and berries. Let stand 2 hours, stirring occasionally; or refrigerate, covered, up to 12 hours. Strain (reserving syrup for another use).
• Pulse wafers in a food processor until finely ground. Add butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt; pulse until mixture has the texture of wet sand. Press half of mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan; freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Temper cherry ice cream in the refrigerator until it has the texture of soft-serve, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, beat cream with remaining 1/3 cup sugar to soft peaks. Stir two thirds of whipped cream (refrigerate the remainder) into cherry ice cream just to combine. Pour ice cream mixture over crust; smooth top and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Top with remaining crumb mixture; press to lightly pack. Freeze 20 minutes. Meanwhile, temper vanilla ice cream in the refrigerator about 20 minutes, then stir into remaining whipped cream just to combine. Fold in half of cherry-berry mixture. Spread over crumb mixture, smooth top, and sprinkle with remaining berry-cherry mixture. Cover and freeze at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.
• Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pot of boiling water. Let cool until no longer hot but still pourable, about 10 minutes. Run a thin-bladed knife between cake and sides of pan to loosen; remove sides. Run knife between bottom of cake and pan; transfer to a cake plate. Drizzle chocolate evenly over cake; top with whole cherries and berries.
• Return to freezer until chocolate hardens, 2 to 3 minutes; or freeze, loosely covered, up to 8 hours. Slice into wedges using a sharp knife dipped in hot water (if cake is too firm to slice, let temper in the refrigerator 10 to 15 minutes first).
