Crafting a Culinary Masterpiece: Eggless Black Forest Cake
A Symphony of Flavours, Minus the Eggs:
There is a reason the Black Forest Cake has been a fan-favourite among sweet tooths since forever. The layers of rich and dense chocolate sponges, enveloped in fluffy whipped cream with textures that are heaven-sent, and of course the cherry on top, literally, this birthday cake would spread bliss in slices and take you a trip down nostalgia lane. Here’s your chance to craft this wonder, without the eggs and bring out the party hats!
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour.
- ½ cup of cocoa powder.
- 1 cup of granulated sugar.
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
- ¼ teaspoon of salt.
- 1 cup of fresh milk.
- 1 tablespoon of white vinegar.
- ½ cup of canola oil, or any flavourless oil of your choice.
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for the essence.
- 1 cup of fresh cherries.
- 2 cups of heavy whipping cream.
- 2-3 cups of powdered sugar for the cream.
Pull out your baking gloves:
- Pre-heat the oven at 350 F degrees.
- Sift together flour and cocoa powder in a large bowl. Then add sugar, baking soda and salt and mix well.
- To make the buttermilk, mix 1 cup milk with white vinegar and set aside for 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes the milk will curdle a bit, at this point add oil and vanilla extract to it.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until the ingredients are just combined. Add 2 tablespoons of water at this point if the batter seems too thick. This is optional, I did add it to my batter. Remember to not over-mix the batter.
- Lightly spray two 6 x 2-inch round pans lined with parchment paper with non-stick spray. Transfer the batter to the prepared pans.
- Bake the cakes at 350 F degrees for 25-27 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- While the cakes are in the oven, make the cherry syrup. To a pan on medium-high heat add water, sugar and cherries. You may add more sugar if using fresh cherries. These maraschino cherries are quite sweet so 2 tablespoons was enough.
- Let the syrup come to a boil and then let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove the syrup from heat and drain it into a bowl using a strainer. Transfer the cherries to another bowl and set aside.
- Make the whipped cream. Place the whisk attachment and the steel bowl into the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes until chilled. Then add to it heavy cream and powdered sugar.
- Using the wire whisk attachment of your stand mixer or your hand mixer, beat the cream with powdered sugar at medium-high speed until it forms peaks.
- Layer the cake with whipped cream in between and garnish the top generously with cherries and chocolate shavings. Voila!
