Black Forest Cake Recipe

Ingredients:

For the cake:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup boiling water (or hot coffee for added depth of flavor)

For the cherry filling:

  • 1 jar (about 24 oz) of Morello cherries (or fresh cherries if available)
  • 1/2 cup cherry juice (from the jar or fresh)
  • 2 tbsp sugar (optional, depending on the sweetness of your cherries)
  • 1/4 cup Kirsch

For the whipped cream:

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For decoration:

  • Chocolate shavings or curls
  • Fresh cherries (for topping)
  • A few tablespoons of Kirsch for soaking the cake layers

Instructions:

1. Prepare the cake:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  • In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Slowly pour in the boiling water (or hot coffee) and stir until smooth. The batter will be thin.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely on a wire rack.

2. Prepare the cherry filling:

  • Drain the cherries, reserving the juice. If you’re using fresh cherries, pit them and slice them in half.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the reserved cherry juice and sugar (if desired), simmering for 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  • Stir in the Kirsch into the cooled syrup. This will soak into the cake layers for added flavor.

3. Make the whipped cream:

  • In a chilled mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-beat.

4. Assemble the cake:

  • Once the cakes are cooled, slice each cake in half horizontally to create four layers.
  • Place the first layer on a serving plate. Drizzle it generously with some of the cherry juice/Kirsch mixture.
  • Spread a layer of whipped cream on top, followed by a handful of the cherries.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining layers, finishing with whipped cream on top.
  • Decorate with chocolate shavings, fresh cherries, and a final drizzle of the cherry syrup.

5. Chill and serve:

  • Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious, boozy Black Forest Cake!

This recipe has a rich cherry and alcohol flavor thanks to the Kirsch, which pairs beautifully with the cocoa in the cake.
