Zubereitung von The Behemoth Of All Black Forest Cakes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cakes are cooling, prepare the cherry filling: In a saucepan, combine the cherries, sugar, and Kirsch (optional). Simmer over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, or until the cherries have softened and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Prepare the whipped cream: In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
- Once the cakes are completely cool, level the tops with a serrated knife if necessary.
- Place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand. Spread a generous layer of cherry filling over the cake layer.
- Top with a layer of whipped cream.
- Repeat with the remaining cake layers, ending with a layer of whipped cream.
- Decorate the cake with chocolate shavings, maraschino cherries, and extra whipped cream. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve and enjoy your masterpiece!
