Yield: 1 servings
1 3/4 c All purpose flour
1 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Salt
2 oz Semisweet chocolate
1 Stick butter
3/4 c Granulated sugar
4 Eggs
1 ts Almond extract
-FILLING & TOPPING:
2 c Whipping cream
2/3 c Confectioners sugar
1/3 c Kirsch
16 oz Can pitted red tart cherries
-drained (reserve liquid)
12 Maraschino cherries w/stems

CAKE: Need two 9-inch round cake pans. In a bowl,
combine flour, baking powder and salt. In double
boiler or microwave, melt chocolate over low heat.
Cool. In another mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar
until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating
after each addition. Add melted chocolate and
gradually add the flour mixture. Add almond extract.
Pour batter into greased and floured pans. Bake in a
preheated 350 degree oven for 30-35 minutes, or until
a cake tester comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes,
then on a wire rack. Cut each layer horizontally, to
make four layers.

Gradually add confectioners' sugar. Sprinkle 1/3
kirsch on a layer of the cake. Cover with whipped
cream and add 1/3 of the drained cherries. Place a
second layer on top and repeat. Then a third. Top the
cake with a fourth layer. Spread 2/3 of the remaining
whipped cream on the top and sides of the cake. Place
last amount of whipped cream in a pastry bag and pipe
rosettes of whipped cream around the top edge. Top
rosettes with stemmed cherries and garnish top center
and sides with chocolate curls (made by shaving a
chocolate bar with a vegetable peeler).
