Heart Shaped Chocolate & Cherries & Cream

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I made this cake for my husband for Valentine's Day. It was easy, turned out beautiful and was decadent! I didn't have 2 heart pans so I made mine with round pans. I then used a large heart cookie cutter to make a heart in the middle and filled in with cherry filling. Be sure to have more cherries than filling. But it was still pretty. I did forget to put the icing in the refrigerator for 10 minutes but it turned out just fine. The cake was dense and richer than anticipated (but good!). I also used a can of dark cherry pie filling which has a richer flavor than regular cherry pie filling. It just made the cake more decadent. We loved it around here and I will definitely make again. For the impact of presentation and taste, this recipe was super easy. Thank you for posting!

    Heart Shaped Chocolate & Cherries & Cream Cake, Every year I pick a cake to make for Valentine’s Day, this one is from Taste Of Home and is beautiful Cake is baked in two 9 inch heart shaped pans, I found them in regular pans and disposable tin pans My cake took longer to cook about 30 minutes Also this is a very sweet cake used two cans of cherry pie filling (not all of both) and for the topping on top I tried to just get the cherries with just a little of the juice , I made this cake for my husband for Valentine’s Day It was easy, turned out beautiful and was decadent! I didn’t have 2 heart pans so I made mine with round pans I then used a large heart cookie cutter to make a heart in the middle and filled in with cherry filling Be sure to have more cherries than filling But it was still pretty I did forget to put the icing in the refrigerator for 10 minutes but it turned out just fine The cake was dense and richer than anticipated (but good!) I also used a can of dark cherry pie filling which has a richer flavor than regular cherry pie filling It just made the cake more decadent We loved it around here and I will definitely make again For the impact of presentation and taste, this recipe was super easy Thank you for posting!, This cake was both beautiful and delicious I was not able to find the heart-shaped pans, so used round ones For the cherries on the top, I had a large heart-shaped cookie cutter which I inserted in the cake, filled with the cherry pie filling, then carefully lifted out the cookie cutter It worked fairly well, but would have been better if I had taken more care to get more cherries and less filling The only other variation I made was to the cakes themselves After the layers had cooled, used a toothpick to make a lot of little holes, then sprinkled the layers with a few tablespoons of Kirschwasser (a cherry brandy) The flavor change was probably quite subtle, but it made the cake very moist and rich Definately a keeper
