I doubled the cake recipe (keeping the baking powder and baking soda the same) and baked this in three 8-inch layers. My husband loves cherries and the "idea" of Black Forest cake but doesn't really like chocolate (I know, and I STILL love him). So for his birthday, I followed the instructions for Black Forest cake using this cake and renamed it White Forest cake, including topping it with shaved white chocolate :) It was incredibly moist and flavorful. The almond flavoring was perfect with the cherry and whipped cream filling. This will definitely become my go-to recipe for yellow cake. Yummy doesn't even come close to describing how delicious this was (and still is 4 days later).
