It came out more like the texture of a brownie than a light cake. All the flavors of a black forest cake were there, just the texture of the cake ruined it. Don't waste your time or ingredients making the cake. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 12/26/2012 The cake for this recipe came out horrible.

Ingredients
- 2 Chocolate Genoise, 9-inch round cakes 3/4 cup Simple Syrup for Black Forest Layer Cake, with kirsch Espresso Whipped Cream Black Cherry Filling Chocolate Ganache for Black Forest Layer Cake
Directions
To make this cake, you will double the Genoise cake recipe, stirring 1/3 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder into the flour and salt. Bake in two 9-inch round cake pans that are buttered, lined with parchment paper, and dusted with cocoa powder. To make simple syrup with kirsch, stir in 1/3 cup kirsch to simple syrup recipe.
Slice each cake in half horizontally. Place 1 cake layer on a cake stand. Brush top with 1/4 cup simple syrup. Spread with 2 cups whipped cream, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Remove cherries from filling syrup with a slotted spoon, and transfer to a medium bowl. Scatter 1 1/4 cups cherries evenly over whipped cream. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons filling syrup. Repeat 2 times. Place final cake layer, cut side down, on top, and spread with ganache. Serve immediately.
