Description

Black Forest Cake. From Alissa.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (250g) flour
  • 2 cups (400g) sugar
  • 3/4 cup cocoa
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1 cup hot coffee
  • 2 cups whipped cream
  • 1 can (15 oz) cherries in juice, drained

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake batter in two 9-inch pans for 28 to 32 minutes.
  2. Cool, split if you want four thin layers, and brush with a few spoons of cherry juice.
  3. Fill and frost with whipped cream and cherries. Chill 1 hour.

Notes

Whipped cream frosting needs a cold cake. A warm cake melts it.
