For a richer chocolate flavor, use a high-quality dark chocolate.
If you don't have cherry juice, you can substitute with more beer or even coffee for a different flavor profile.
To prevent the nuts from sinking to the bottom of the cake, toss them with a tablespoon of flour before folding them into the batter.
Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
