Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 box chocolate cake mix for two 8-inch rounds, plus necessary ingredients
Strong brewed coffee, as needed
Buttermilk, as needed
4 cups heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
One 24-ounce jar sour cherries, drained
2 tablespoons kirsch
Chocolate shavings, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the cake: Make the cake according to the package instructions, but substitute half of the water with coffee, and the other half with buttermilk (most likely it will call for 1 cup total of water). Bake in two 8-inch round cake pans according to package instructions. Let the cakes cool completely.
  • For the cream: Using an electric mixer, beat the cream, sugar and almond extract together in a large bowl until stiff peaks form.
  • For the cherries: Combine the cherries and kirsch in a small bowl.
  • To assemble: Use a serrated knife to cut the cakes in half horizontally. Create layers of cake, cherries and whipped cream, repeating. Top the cake with whipped cream, a few cherries and chocolate shavings.
