Cherry Pasties showcase gorgeous Michigan fruit
[PAY-steez]!)Pasties are hand-held savory pies that miners in the Upper Peninsula could easily take with them for a hearty midday meal. They're very simple and straightforward food: chopped meat and vegetables bound with a bit of gravy, encased in a crust. But it's only an authentic pasty if it contains rutabaga ... trust me. This is as serious a matter to the folks in Michigan as the Ohio State game is!
So technically, I'm not providing a recipe today for "pasties" because there isn't any rutabaga in this sweet version. But this dessert — with its filling that bursts with the flavor of Michigan fruit — was inspired by the traditional pasty. Call it an homage!
I first made these years ago for some cooking contest... I don't even remember which one. I didn't win any prize, but I did win Jeremy's devotion — he adores these treats, and it was his recommendation that I make them in honor of Saturday's game.
So try a dessert pasty that showcases Michigan's gorgeous cherries. And cheer on the Wolverines this weekend. Hail to the Victors!

Cherry Chocolate Cake with Cherry Vanilla Buttercream ...
Because cherries right now are plentiful, affordable, and at their best. Because everyone loves a good chocolate cake. Because my obsession with Italian meringue buttercream continues. And because when all three are combined you have a cake that absolutely no one can resist.
I give you, Cherry Chocolate Cake with Cherry Vanilla Buttercream.
Growing up my Dad’s favorite cake, the one my Mom would bake for him on his birthday, was a very simple cherry chocolate cake. It was just a boxed cake mix with a can of cherry pie filling added but it was a treat that I grew to look forward to each year.
Fast forward fifteen or so years and I can’t remember the last time I had a piece or even thought about it. Then during some down time at Evo a few weeks ago, my friend Kelley told me about some brownies she had made with fresh cherries and how incredible they were.
It was like a light bulb went on in my head. Not only did I at once remember the cherry chocolate cake of my youth, but I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. I had to recreate it.
And so I did. I started with a basic devils food cake and added about half a pound of pitted cherries directly into the batter before baking. The filling I created is essentially an improved homemade version of cherry pie filling, made with cherries, kirsch (a cherry liquor), and some sugar. I would have been more than happy to eat that all by itself.
My Mom always iced my Dad’s cake with a chocolate glaze, but I decided I wanted something lighter. I whipped up some Italian meringue buttercream and flavored it with more kirsch and vanilla.
8 ounces sweet cherries, pitted and sliced into small piecesPreheat oven to 325 degrees F. Butter three eight inch cake pans, line them with parchment paper and butter the parchment paper. Add some flour to each pan and roll around until completely coated, pouring out any excess.
