    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
       1/3           cup  cocoa powder
       1/3           cup  sugar -- plus 1 tablespoon
       3/4           cup  sugar
    2 1/4           cups  all-purpose flour
    1           teaspoon  baking powder
       1/2      teaspoon  salt
    2                     eggs
       1/3           cup  oil
       1/2      teaspoon  almond extract
    1                cup  sour cream
       1/2           cup  dried cherries -- chopped
    3        tablespoons  mini chocolate chips

1. Heat oven to 350F. Coat 3, 5-3/4 x 3 x 2-1/8" loaf pans with 
nonstick cooking spray.

2. In small bowl, whisk cocoa powder, 1/3 cup of the sugar and 1/3 
cup water until smooth. Set aside.

3. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. 
In a medium-size bowl, whisk together remaining 3/4 cup sugar, the 
eggs, oil and almond extract. Whisk in sour cream.

4. Stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until blended. Stir 
1-1/2 cups of the batter into the cocoa mixture, along with the 
chopped cherries, until no white streaks remain. Dollop alternating 
spoonfuls of batter into prepared pans. Swirl batters together with a 
butter knife until marbled in appearance. Top each loaf with 1 
tablespoon mini chips.

5. Bake at 350F for 35 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center of 
loaves comes out clean. Cool loaves in pans on wire rack for 10 
minutes, then remove directly to rack to cool completely.

Note:
Batter may be baked as one 9 x 5 x 3" loaf; increase baking time to 
45 to 50 minutes; test center of loaf with a toothpick before removing.
