Cooking

Prepare cherry filling: cherries, not defrosting, put in saucepan, add sugar and bring to a boil, pour in the liqueur. Starch diluted in 2 tbsp water and add to cherries and cook for 2 minutes until thick. Cool.

Butter cut into small pieces and put in saucepan. Add the sugar and vanilla essence, put on a slow fire.

When the sugar has dissolved completely, add the broken chocolate. Stirring occasionally, melt it. Remove the skillet from the heat, the chocolate mass cools slightly.

Separate the whites from the yolks. The flour sift with baking powder and salt. Alternately add the egg yolks and flour mixture to chocolate, stirring well each time

Proteins whisk in cool foam and gently mixed into the dough.

The dough pour into shape (I used a round detachable shape with a diameter 24 cm), oiled.

Put the form in a preheated 180 degree oven for 40 minutes. When the cake is ready, get it and leave to cool in the form 20 minutes, then remove it and let cool completely. Cut into 2 Korzh.

Whisk the cream with sugar powder in a magnificent mass.

Cake put on a plate. On it spread the cherry filling.

Then the whipped cream.

And cover with a second Korzh.

Make the glaze: melt chocolate with butter and milk, mix well and cool slightly. Pour the resulting icing the cake. Leave until firm. I removed overnight in the refrigerator.

When the icing hardens, decorate to taste. I wanted to just sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Bon appetit!
