Measurements#
I live in the US and cook with imperial measurement tools. However, I’ve found great success in utilizing metric grams in place of imperial cups, ounces, pounds, and so forth. A handy kitchen scale makes measuring ingredients fast, simple, accurate, and reproducible. Some imperial measurements remain in my recipes (ex: one 15 ounce can) mainly because it makes for easy shopping for and cooking with prepackaged goods sold in the US.

I first made this recipe to frost a double-layer 9" round chocolate cake. This recipe produced enough frosting to top each of the rounds (filling between the two rounds, plus the top). If it is desired to fill & frost both the sides and top, the recipe could be doubled. Depending on the strength of the flavor of the cherry preserves, you may need more or less. Also, due to the varying consistencies of various preserves, more or less confectioners’ sugar may be needed....
