Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Whisk the yolks with sugar and 2 tablespoons of warm water.
Step 2
Whisk the egg whites separately until soft peaks form and gently fold them into the yolk mixture.
Step 3
Sift the flour with cocoa powder and baking powder. Fold into the egg mixture. Add the grated chocolate (originally, it was suggested to add 60 g of ground almonds, but I didn't have any, so I made it without).
Step 4
Pour the batter into a greased pan and bake at 180°C for about 30 minutes (check with a toothpick). Let the baked layer cool and cut it into 3 parts.
Step 5
Filling: pit the cherries, collect the juice, pour it into a saucepan, add sugar and cinnamon. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then add the alcohol.
Step 6
Soak the layers with the warm syrup.
Step 7
Whip the cream with sugar and vanilla.
Step 8
Assembly: place half of the cherries on the bottom layer, spread cream so that it fills the gaps between the cherries. Place the second layer and repeat the process.
Step 9
Spread the remaining cream on the sides and top, and decorate with chopped chocolate.
Step 10
According to the rules, the cake should be refrigerated for a couple of hours.
