Black Forest Cake Recipe

To make this cake, start by making a dark chocolate cake. It needs to be 4 layers. Make sure the layers are cooled before assembling.

1/4 c. kirsch (cherry brandy)
1 can cherry pie filling
16 oz. heavy whipping cream
1/2 c. confectioners' sugar

Add the second cake layer. Pour half of the cherry pie filling on the second layer. Leave 1 inch of cake showing around the edge so it has room to spread. Add the third cake layer and cover it with more whipping cream. Add the fourth cake layer. Cover the entire cake with remaining whipping cream. Pour remaining cherry filling on top of cake. Gently press the chocolate shavings into the sides of the cake.

    This is a chocolate lovers cake. I love the above picture with the icing and shaved chocolate bits. The cherry does a good job of offsetting the chocolate taste from being too overwhelming.
