As far as I know, this cake recipe can be traced back to my German great-grandma. When I got married, my mother gave me a copy and I hope to someday pass it down to my children. -Stephanie Travis, Fallon, Nevada

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 deg F (Gas mark 4 or 180 deg C).
- Line a 9 inch (23 cm) cake pan with greaseproof or other non-stick paper.
- With an electric mixer, beat the softened butter with sugar until white and fluffy.
- Add one egg at a time, mix well between each egg.
- Add sifted flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, vanilla extract and buttermilk, and mix until the batter is smooth.
- Transfer to a cake pan and bake at 350 degrees just until set in the middle, approximately 45-60 minutes. A wooden pick inserted in center should come out with just a few moist crumbs on it. Do not over-bake!
- When cake is cool, use a long serrated knife to cut the cake horizontally into 3 equal layers. It is easier to cut if kept in a refrigerator for a few hours before cutting.
- Filling
- Drain cherry pie filling in a colander to remove most of the thickened juices.
- Beat the whipping cream with confectioners' sugar until it thickens.
- Using a vegetable peeler, shave chocolate; refrigerate until the cake is assembled.

- Beat 9 eggs with the whisk attachment for 1 min on high. With the mixer on, gradually add 1 cup sugar and continue beating on high speed a full 8 min. It will be thick and fluffy. Tip: the mixture it should fall off the whisk and still ‘stand up’ on the cake mixture
- Roughly chop pitted cherries and place in a medium bowl with 3 Tbsp kirsch. Let sit at room temp for at least 30 min, stirring a couple times, then drain cherries in a sieve over a bowl. Keep the cherries and syrup. Add 1/4 cup cold filtered water to the syrup to get about 3/4 cup total syrup.
- Beat 3 1/2 cups heavy cream with whisk attachment on high speed until soft peaks form, add 1/3 cup powdered sugar and 1 Tbsp kirsch and beat on high until stiff and spreadable (1-2 min). Refrigerate until ready to use (tip: keep whisk attachment in the bowl - you can re-whip if it seems slightly loose after refrigeration).
- Place first cake layer on a cake stand and brush with 1/4 of the syrup. Cover top with about 3/4 cup frosting and top with 1/3 of the chopped cherries. Repeat with remaining layers and top with the flattest layer. Transfer 1 1/2 cups frosting to a pastry bag with a large flower tip and refrigerate until ready to use (don't handle the bag too much or the cream will soften). Fill the cracks along the sides of cake with frosting then frost the top and sides with remaining frosting.
HOW TO MAKE BLACK FOREST CAKE: A STEP-BY-STEP RECIPE

Estimated Reading Time 8 mins
- Heat the oven and prepare the cake pans. Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F. Coat 2 (9-inch) round cake pans with cooking spray and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
- Make the cake batter. Place 1 cup whole milk, 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract in a medium bowl and whisk to combine.
- Bake the cakes. Evenly divide the batter between the prepared baking pans (about 2 generous cups per pan). Bake until the cakes are slightly domed and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached and the edges start to pull away from the pan, 28 to 30 minutes.
- Make the filling. Drain 1 can cherries through a strainer set over a bowl. Set aside 8 of the cherries for garnish. Place the remaining cherries in a small saucepan.
- Strain the filling. Pour the mixture through the reserved strainer into the reserved bowl. Set the cherries and syrup aside to cool to room temperature.
- Make a chocolate sheet. Cut an 18 by 13-inch piece of parchment paper. Place 8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high in 30-second bursts, stirring between each burst, until melted, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes total.
- Make the stabilizer for the frosting. When the cake is cooled, place 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, 3/4 cup of the heavy cream, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract in a small saucepan.
- Make the frosting. Place the remaining 2 1/4 cups cold heavy cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. (Alternatively, use an electric hand mixer and large bowl.)
- Prepare the cakes and start assembling. Run a knife around the edges of the cooled cakes. Remove from cakes from the pans and discard the parchment. Using a serrated knife, trim the rounded tops off of each cake.
- Fill and frost the cake. Evenly distribute the cooked cherries and any of their remaining syrup over the frosting. Top with the remaining cake layer, cut-side down.
