Como fazer Authentic Black Forest Cake Schwarzwald Kirsch Kuchen
- 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 sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- 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 25-30 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 wire racks to cool completely.
- While the cakes are cooling, prepare the cherry filling: Combine the pitted cherries, Kirsch (or cherry juice), sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened.
- Let the cherry filling cool completely.
- To make the whipped cream, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the vanilla extract.
- Once the cakes are completely cool, level the tops if necessary. Place one cake layer on a serving plate.
- Spread a generous layer of cherry filling over the first cake layer.
- Top with a layer of whipped cream.
- Repeat with the remaining cake layers, ending with a layer of whipped cream.
- Decorate the top of the cake with chocolate shavings, maraschino cherries, and whipped cream rosettes.
- Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
