Goodies for Good

Cherry-Vanilla Bundt Cake

Cut into this sugar-dusted beauty to reveal a river of cherries.

ACTIVE TIME 20 MINUTES

TOTAL TIME 2 HOURS, 20 MINUTES

MAKES 10 SLICES

Baking spray with flour

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp. kosher salt

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

2 cups granulated sugar

1 cup plain whole-milk yogurt

2/3 cup neutral oil (such as canola)

2 large eggs, plus 1 egg white 

1 Tbsp. pure vanilla extract

1 cup cherry pie filling (from a 21-oz. can)

Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

PREHEAT oven to 350°F with rack in center position. Spray a 10-cup Bundt pan with baking spray. (Or use regular cooking spray and dust with flour.)

WHISK flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl. Whisk granulated sugar, yogurt, oil, eggs, egg white, and vanilla in a separate large bowl. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients just until smooth.

TRANSFER about two-thirds of batter to prepared pan. Spoon cherry pie filling on top, being careful not to let filling touch sides of pan. Top with remaining batter.

BAKE until a toothpick inserted in center comes out mostly clean, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool in pan for 15 minutes. Invert onto a wire rack, remove pan, and let cool completely, about 1 hour. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

Go With Your Gut - Each of us has a little voice inside that knows more than the conscious mind. It's called intuition, and it deserves your attention.

Cognitive scientists, who study how human beings think and reason, generally define intuition as knowledge gained without rational thought, and they believe it's a natural part of how our brains work. Humans have two main ways of absorbing information. One is a slow, deliberate process, in which we methodically analyze details for instance, comparing two laptop models before buying. The second happens almost instantly, and the insight feels like it came out of the blue. In fact, though, it's based on data we've gathered subconsciously over time and, in a flash, connected with our past experiences.
