For an extra touch of elegance, dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving. Ensure your butter and cream cheese are fully softened for a smooth and creamy batter. If you don't have maraschino cherries, you can substitute with another type of candied cherry or even fresh, pitted cherries (though the flavor will be slightly different). To prevent the cake from sticking, you can also use baking spray with flour instead of greasing and flouring the pan.
