Black Forest Loaf Cake

5. Whip the Cream:

  • In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.

6. Assemble the Black Forest Loaf Cake:

  • Once the cake is completely cooled, slice it horizontally into two layers.
  • Spread a layer of whipped cream on the bottom half of the cake. Spoon half of the cherry filling over the whipped cream.
  • Place the second cake layer on top and repeat the process with whipped cream and the remaining cherry filling.

7. Garnish (Optional):

  • Garnish the top of the Black Forest Loaf Cake with chocolate shavings and fresh cherries if desired.

8. Chill and Serve:

  • Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the whipped cream to set. Slice and serve chilled.

Tips:

  • Chocolate Shavings: Use a vegetable peeler to create chocolate shavings from a chocolate bar for a beautiful garnish.
  • Cherry Variations: If fresh cherries are not in season, you can use canned cherry pie filling as a convenient alternative.
  • Storage: Keep the Black Forest Loaf Cake refrigerated. It can be stored for up to 2-3 days.
