Steps:
- Drain juice from canned cherries. Place them in a dish and cover them with vodka. Cover dish with plastic wrap and allow cherries to soak for at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
- Prepare chocolate sponge cakes (see linked recipe above).
- Cut off a thin layer from each sponge cake. Set it aside carefully, as you will use it as a cake "lid" later on.
- Cut a line close to the inner rim of the cake. Rip out the inside of the cake to create a bowl. Gently rip the cake insides into small pieces and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer to combine sugar and ultra-cold heavy whipping cream. Whisk on medium-high until the cream reaches stiff peaks.
- Drain alcohol from cherries. Mix sponge cake crumbs, cherries, and about 80% of the cake cream together.
- Fill each cake bowl with cake cream. Carefully cover each cake bowl with cake lid.
- Stack layers together with a bit of cream in between. With remaining cream, frost the outside of the entire cake. Refrigerate it while you prepare chocolate ganache.
- Place chocolate chips in a bowl. In a sauce pan over medium-heat, bring cream to a simmer (do not let it reach a boil). Pour hot cream over the chocolate chips, stirring constantly until the ganache is smooth and melted. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
- Place chocolate ganache in a piping bag or a plastic storage bag with one of the ends cut. Drizzle chocolate on the edges of the cake, letting it drip off the sides. Apply the remaining chocolate ganache to the top of the cake, spreading it carefully to create a smooth top. Use remaining cherries to decorate the outside of the cake as you wish.
- Keep cake refrigerated overnight to allow it to set. Serve cold.

LENY'S GUATEMALAN BORRACHO OR DRUNKEN CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°. Butter and flour a baking pan. (Leny uses a round aluminum cake pan.)
- Mix your dry ingredients and sift them. Set aside.
- Separate the eggs: place the 7 whites and 7 yolks in two different bowls.
- With your mixer, beat the egg whites until they turn into stiff peaks.
- By hand with a fork or on the lowest setting of your mixer, beat the yolks in a separate bowl. Beat them until they get slightly creamy and frothy, says Leny.
- By hand, slowly, using a rubber spatula, in a circular motion going one way only, mix the yolks into the whites. You don't want to disturb the whites too much or you will lose the airy peaks you worked so hard to get.
- When they are fully mixed, slowly add to your bowl the dry ingredients-all the while mixing by hand in a circular motion.
- Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan. Bake for 50 minutes.
- Check your cake starting at 40 or 45 minutes, to make sure it doesn't burn. Insert a knife into the cake and when it is clean, it's done.
- Take the cake out from the oven and let it cool for an hour. You want the cake to be lukewarm or room temperature. (Don't put it in the refrigerator, warns Leny. If the cake gets too cold, it will stick to the pan, since it's made with eggs.)
- While the cake is baking, start making the borracho syrup. First, wash the whole lime. Peel it in one long strip, all the way around.
- Pour the water in a saucepan. Add the sugar, cinnamon stick, allspice whole berries, lime peel long strand, and pinch of salt. Bring to a boil.
- Boil for about 35 minutes. Bonus: "Your house will smell delicious," says Leny.
- Remove and discard the cinnamon stick, cloves, allspice berries and lime peel. Let the liquid cool for about 10 minutes.
- Stir in your brandy or rum, if desired, and set aside.
- When the cake gets to room temperature, loosen and remove it from its baking pan. Place on your serving plate.
- With a thin knife or a wooden skewer stick, poke dozens of tiny holes in the cake ("Like you are stabbing someone," jokes Leny. "Go crazy: stabbing, stabbing. That's where all the flavor comes in.")
- Slowly pour half the syrup over the top, so that it seeps into all the holes. Place the cake in the refrigerator to fully absorb the syrup overnight. Also put the leftover syrup in the fridge.
- The next day, pour the second half of the syrup over the top. Refrigerate again.
- While the cake is cooling for the second time, make your manjar or milk-and-sugar topping. Place ½ cup of milk into a small bowl. Mix in the cornstarch and set aside.
- In a saucepan set to medium heat, place 2 cups milk, the sugar and the cinnamon stick. Stir. Bring to a low boil on medium heat.
- About 5 minutes after the milk starts to bubble, remove the cinnamon stick.
- Very gradually, whisk in the milk-cornstarch mix into the gently boiling milk in the pan. Be sure to go slow and add bit by little bit, stirring constantly, or the mixture will get hard and goopy, warns Leny.
- Once the milk-cornstarch mixture is fully integrated, turn the heat to medium low and stir constantly. In about 5 minutes, when the milk gets to the right consistency (not too watery, not too solid: you want creamy thick), it is ready.
- Take the cake out of the refrigerator. Pour the warm topping over the cold cake. The sweet manjar will mostly sit on top of the cake, with a little bit gently sliding over the sides onto the serving dish.
- Return the cake to the refrigerator to chill the manjar topping.
- Before serving, the borracho must sit in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. "This cake must be served very cold," says Leny.
- You have a choice of decoration toppings. 1) Go traditional: Sprinkle raisins and ground cinnamon over the top. Place one or more cherries on the creamy manjar, or 2) Choose your own fruit adventure. Leny's go-to frutas: Instead of raisins, which no one in her house really likes, she tops her borracho cake with layers of sliced canned peaches, sliced fresh strawberries, sliced fresh kiwis, and whole canned plums-to her family's delight. Every time.
- Once the borracho is decorated, if you are not ready to eat it yet, return the cake to the refrigerator to keep it muy frío until time for serving.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. Put the egg whites in a large mixing bowl. Put the egg yolks in a small bowl. In a separate medium bowl mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. 2. With an electric beater or mixer, beat the egg whites until foamy and white. Add 1/4 cup of the sugar. And beat until shiny and soft peaks form. With the same beater, in a separate bowl beat the yolks with the remaining sugar until thick, pale yellow, and fluffy. Add the yolks to the beaten whites, and using low speed, blend 5 seconds. 3. With a rubber spatula, in 3 additions, fold the flour mixture carefully into the egg mixture. Drizzle the melted butter and vanilla over the batter, and stir gently to blend ingredients into a smooth batter. 4. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown on top, and a tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. 5. When done, remove the cake from the oven, and let stand in the pan on a rack 5 minutes. (Don't cool cake.) Meanwhile, prepare the rum syrup. In a medium pan, stir together the sugar and water. Bring to a boil, stirring, to dissolve the sugar then reduce heat to low and simmer 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, and stir in the rum. 6. Gradually spoon the hot rum syrup over the hot cake until it is all absorbed. Cool at least 1 hour before serving. Cut the cake in wedges while in the pan and serve at room temperature or cold. Store the cake, well covered, in the refrigerator up to 3 days.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc.

Here's a link to this recipe: http://www.grouprecipes.com/668/drunk-cheesecake.html There are tons of great ones there. Original poster had this to say about this recipe: "This is a recipe I made up by combining two other recipes and throwing in a bit of my own ideas. I like to think of it as an "adult" tasting cheesecake."

Steps:
- CHEESECAKE:.
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees F.
- Combine graham wafer crumbs and melted butter in a small bowl.
- Stir well and press into a 9" springform pan that has been lined on the bottom with parchment paper and greased.
- Bake in preheated oven until firm.
- In a large bowl combine cream cheese, sugar and salt, beat just until smooth. Do not over beat the mixture - you don't want to incorporate too much air in the cheesecake - it increases the chances for the cake to crack and fall.
- Add the egg yolks three at a time beating after each addition.
- Scrape down sides of bowl and add the sour cream, lemon juice, vanilla and zest, blend until just smooth, careful not to over beat the mixture.
- Add cornstarch and mix until smooth.
- In a clean stainless bowl whip the egg whites until soft peaks hold.
- Fold egg whites gently but quickly into cheese mixture, making sure no streaks of the egg whites remain. Again do not over mix the mixture.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and bake in middle of oven for 70 minutes or until cake is just firm.
- If it is NOT golden on top at this point, increase oven temperature to 300 degrees F and bake another 10 minutes until cake is golden.
- Turn oven off and open oven door, leaving cake in oven for another 20 minutes.
- Remove and cool completely.
- PORT SAUCE:.
- Bring Port, sugar, star anise, cinnamon stick, cloves, and clementine peel to boil in heavy large saucepan over high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves.
- Reduce heat to medium and simmer 5 minutes.
- Add cranberries and simmer mixture until cranberries begin to pop, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and transfer to medium bowl; refrigerate until cold.
- Serve cheesecake draped in port sauce.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Gently heat the prunes and Marsala over a low heat until hot. Remove from the heat and leave for about 1 hr or until the prunes have absorbed almost all of the liquid. Whizz the prunes and any remaining booze in a food processor until roughly chopped.
- Butter and line the base of a 20cm springform tin. Dust with cocoa, tip out any excess and reserve. Melt the butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir in the prune mix.
- Whisk the sugars, 2 eggs and 2 egg yolks until pale, thick and doubled in volume. Fold the chocolate mixture and vanilla into the egg mixture, then sift over the ground almonds, flour and remaining cocoa. Fold until everything is combined.
- Whisk the egg whites until stiff and gently fold into the mixture. Spoon into the prepared tin and bake for 20-25 mins or until a light crust has formed. Allow to cool in the tin - it will sink and crack as it cools. Remove from the tin and dust with cocoa before serving.

- In both sponge cakes, cut a line close to the edges on the inside. Rip out the inside of the cake, forming a bowl. Rip cake insides into small pieces. Set aside.
- Whip together 1 cup sugar and heavy whip cream. Make sure that the whip cream is very cold, so it outputs the cream firm.
