This year I was asked to make desert for Christmas dinner at my in-laws. I wanted to do something that would show nicely, everyone would enjoy, was something new and was a little different then all the rest of the goodies I was making. I decided on Black Forest Cake. This cake looks beautiful (even when Alan put the cake stand cover on it and smooshed a bit of the bottom piping), tastes divine and is really easy to make! Everyone was definitely impressed!

Make the old-fashioned chocolate cake. Horizontally, slice each layer so you have 4 layers in total. Take one layer (the worst one) and tear into crumbs and set aside.

To make whipped cream, begin with a bowl and mixing whisk that is cold. I stick mine in the freezer for a few minutes. Beat  Heavy cream, confectioner’s sugar and vanilla extract at low-speed, gradually increasing to high-speed until stiff peaks are formed.

To assemble cake place one layer onto cake stand and spread about 1 cup of whipped topping. Add about 3/4 cup of cherry topping. Repeat for second layer. Place 3rd layer of cake on top and frost cake with whipped topping. Pat crumbs from chocolate cake that you set aside along the sides of the cake. You can decorate the cake however you like, seeing different variations online. The way I did it was placing the whipped topping to a pastry bag, using a #32 tip and piping along the top edge and bottom edge. Note, let the whipped topping set in the fridge for a little bit to firm up, I did not do this and the piping didn’t come out as clean as I would have liked it. Then, take remaining cherry topping and spread along top.
