Рецепт Black Forest Cake
Here is my recipe
- Chocolate Sponge Cake
- 3 Eggs
- 20g Water
- 165g Optima flour
- 48g Melted Butter
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1/2 tbsp Chocolate paste
- 1/2 tbsp Chocolate emulco
Add eggs, water and optima flour and whisk at high speed till thick and fluffly then add vanilla extract, chocolate paste and chocolate emulco, mix well.
Lastly add in melted butter and mix well again.
Pour batter into a 8" round cake tin (lined) and bake in preheated oven at 180C for about 20-30 mins.
Remove sponge cake immediately from cake tin after baked and leave cake to cool then cut to 3 slices.
Mousse filling
60g Semi sweet chocolate - chop to small pieces
40g Whipping cream
100g Fresh topping cream and 85g Whipping cream
In a large bowl, chop semi sweet chocolate to small pieces. Boil 40g whipping cream and pour on to the chocolate pieces.
Use a hand whisk to stir chocolate cream till smooth or you can put the bowl of chocolate cream over a pot of hot water for 1 minute and stir chocolate cream till smooth and add 1 tsp vanilla extract, leave to cool.
Whisk 100g fresh topping cream together with 85 whipping cream till peak form (not too stiff) and fold into the chocolate cream with a hand whisk and put chocolate mousse in the fridge for few minutes till semi-set.
Topping
300g Fresh Topping cream - whip to peak form - for adding dark sweet cherries and covering the whole cake
1 small Canned Dark sweet cherries - drained
**Kirsch syrup - measure 150ml hot water with 50g sugar, still till sugar melted and leave to cool. Add in 1 tbsp of Kirschwasser (cherry liqueur) and mix well.
Assemble cake
Place the base of chocolate sponge on cake board and brush with some kirsch syrup.
Spread its top with whipped fresh cream and strew the dark sweet cherries over the fresh cream.
Place the 2nd layer of chocolate sponge on top of cherries, brush kirsch and spread semi-set chocolate mousse evenly on cake follow by the last slice of chocolate sponge with kirsch sugar syrup.
Finally spread whipped fresh cream all over the cake and decorate cake as desire or with red cherries on top of the cake and chocolate rice or flakes at the side.
Enjoy
Kitchen note: I actually bought a large canned of dark sweet cherries and not to waste the cherries, I baked another two cakes last week (Cherry Polka Dot Swiss Roll and Almond Cheese cake - will post later) and gave the cakes to my cousin and friend over the weekend.
