Making Homemade Chocolate Cherry Cake
Step 1
The first step is to prepare the dough. Preparation of the dough begins with eggs: they need to be washed under running water and in a container, separate the whites from the yolks. Beat the proteins with a mixer or blender, gradually adding half of the cooked sugar.
Step 2
Do not beat for too long. It is not necessary to wait until all the sugar dissolves.
And at the end, before turning off the mixer, add slaked soda.
Step 3
Further, the yolks are included in the work. Whisk them by hand with the remaining half of the sugar.
Step 4
When you get a homogeneous mass, you must first sift and add a third of flour and cocoa.
Step 5
Next, the whites with the yolks need to be combined.
Step 6
After mixing everything with a spoon, add the rest of the flour and gently bring the mass to homogeneity with a spoon.
Step 7
Grease a baking dish (you can take a frying pan) with sunflower oil and pour the prepared crust dough into it. Bake the crust in the oven over medium heat for about 30 minutes.
Step 8
At this stage, care should be taken to ensure that the cake does not dry out. After 20 minutes after being sent to the oven, you need to check the readiness. As soon as there are no traces of dough on the wooden surface, the cake should be pulled out and allowed to cool.
Step 9
Cut the cooled cake into two parts and put the top down.
Each of the parts in turn needs to be cleaned of the dough, scraping off the crumbs with a spoon and leaving only crusts from the halves of the cake.
Step 10
Collect the crumbs in a separate bowl - they will be required for the cream.
Step 11
Let's start preparing the cream. First you need to soften the butter in a water bath.
Then mix the sugar, eggs, melted butter and beat a little with a mixer.
Step 12
The resulting mass should be poured into a more suitable container to boil the cream over the fire. Add cocoa and milk and bring to a boil.
Step 13
After the mass has cooled down a little, it can be poured into a container with crumbs from the crust, add vanillin, pitted cherries and mix everything well. The cream is ready!
Step 14
Cooking fondant. Melt the butter. In a separate container, mix the required amount of sugar with cocoa, then pour this mixture into the melted butter.
Add milk and stir.
Step 15
The resulting mixture should be cooked over low heat for 15–20 minutes.
After the fondant, let's start assembling the cake.
Step 16
Put the bottom crust from the crust on a dish and put the cream on it, evenly distributing it over the entire crust.
Step 17
Turn the top over with the inner side and soak with a little fondant.
Step 18
Then gently turn over and cover the bottom with the cream.
Step 19
Now you can pour fondant over the chocolate cake and leave it in a cool place for a while to soak it thoroughly.
Bon appetit to you and your dear and beloved people, who today simply cannot refuse such a tasty treat!
