Black Forest gâteau recipe MYVIRGINKITCHEN collab with GentlemanBunny

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Drain syrup from tinned pitted cherries and measure out 2 tablespoons into a pot.

Mix the 2 tablespoons of cherry syrup with 2 tablespoons of cherry cordial.

Spoon a couple of spoonfuls of the cherry juice onto both sponge cake bases and let it absorb.

Grate 200g of dark chocolate.

Smear a little bit of cream around the edge of both cake bases and pat the grated chocolate around the edge to act as glue.

Spread a layer of cherry jam along the bottom layer of the first sponge.

Take half of the remaining cream and smear it on top of the jam on the first sponge.

Halve the drained pitted cherries and place them on top of the cream to create an even layer.

Place the second sponge on top of the cherries.

Add the remaining cream on top of the second sponge.

Add fresh cherries with stalks around the outer edge of the cake.

Sprinkle grated chocolate in the middle of the cream layer.

Add more cherries from the tin and dust with chocolate on top.
