It doesn't have to be April to make a delicious Black Forest Cake. I refer to April because this month is par excellence in the town of Todtnauberg (Black Forest region-Germany) that the festival is held where thousands of these cakes are made to the delight of visitors and thus choose each year the best.
I love the combination of flavors OF Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte or Black Forest Cake. I love especially ite bitterness of cocoa, the sweetness of cherries, and the exquisite aroma of cherry Kirch. That is why today, I am sharing my recipe with all of you.
1 cup wheat flour
3/4 cup sugar
6 eggs
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons Kirch or cherry liqueur
1 tablespoons baking powder
For the filling
1 cup whipping cream
fresh or candied cherries
bitter chocolate
Mix in a bowl all the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, baking powder) previously sifted.
Separate the egg whites from the egg yolks, and beat the egg whites at high speed until stiff. Gradually add the sugar until the meringue was forming.
With the help of a pastry spatula, add the egg yolks and mix with wrapping movements. Then gradually add the dry ingredients. When everything is well mixed, place in a greased and floured baking pan and bake at 180ºC for 30 minutes.
Place the cream in a bowl and beat on high speed until the cream doubles in volume and forms stiff peaks. Separate a portion and mix it with chopped cherries and bitter chocolate pieces.
Cut the biscuit into two halves and moisten each with Kirch or cherry liqueur. Since I didn't have any cherry Kirch at home, I moistened the biscuit with blackberry liqueur.
Proceed to place a layer of cream with cherries and chocolate and then sponge cake moistened with liqueur. You can finish the cake by decorating it with whole cherries and bitter chocolate shavings.
This is a delicious cake you can accompany with a delicious coffee or tea according to your taste.
I hope you enjoyed my recipe and I encourage you to prepare it sometime at home. Remember, it doesn't have to be April.
