Unbelievably Easy Slow Cooker Black Forest Cake image

This recipe is amazing. It seems too good to be true, with only four ingredients and almost no preparation involved. I was worried about how this would turn out, but it was a huge hit at Thanksgiving. This can be altered to your liking by using different pie fillings and different cake mixes.

Easy Dressed-Up Black Forest Cake image

After traveling to Germany and loving their Black Forest Cake, I came home wanting to recreate it with what I had at the time. I was 17 and could only purchase, not yet create, so here is what I did. To this day my son requests it for his birthday every year. Pie filling should ooze out - this is the art of the cake!

Time 11h50m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 devil's food chocolate cake mix (such as Betty Crocker® Super Moist®)
1 ¼ cups water
3 eggs
½ cup vegetable oil
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling
1 (4 ounce) bar dark chocolate

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans.

  • Beat heavy cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes.
  • Cut each cake in half horizontally with a bread knife, to make 4 layers. Place one layer on a serving plate. Spread 1/4 of the whipped cream on top. Top with 1/3 of the cherry pie filling; spread evenly. Place second cake layer on top. Repeat layering whipped cream, cherry pie filling, and cake layers, ending with whipped cream on top.
  • Grate chocolate bar or shave into curls with a peeler; scatter on top of whipped cream.
  • Refrigerate cake until flavors combine, about 2 hours.

EASY PEASY BLACK FOREST CAKE



Easy Peasy Black Forest Cake image

At 8pm on his birthday, after the shops had shut and after weeks of saying that he didn't care what we ate as long as it involved beer, DB decided that what he REALLY wanted was black forest gateau. Go figure. This isn't really dark or slick enough to be black forest gateau, but it's what I made with what I had in the cupboards, and was pretty quick and easy to do, and involved chocolate, cream and cherries - so after a couple of cans and a lasagne it sufficed! Probably a good recipe for kids who aren't ready for the really rich and bitter flavour of proper BFG.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons hot water
1 -2 tablespoon cocoa
125 g butter, warmed
125 g caster sugar
2 medium eggs
125 g self raising flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoons milk
170 ml whipping cream
2 teaspoons caster sugar
400 g cherries in syrup or 400 g cherry pie filling

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to GM4 (180C, 350F)
  • Mix hot water into cocoa to form a smooth paste.
  • In a large mixing bowl cream the butter and sugar with a hand mixer until pale and around double the original volume.
  • Break the eggs and beat them until yolk and white are mixed.
  • Combine the eggs and cocoa paste with the butter/sugar mixture.
  • Sift in the flour and the baking powder and fold them into the mixture.
  • Stir n the milk.
  • Bake in one 8 inch cake tin at least 2 inches tall for 35 minutes, or one 9 inch tin for 30 mins (You could do this in two separate sandwich tins, but I have no idea how long it would take to bake!).
  • Leave the cake for 15 minutes to cool before turning out. Leave for another 5 and then use a sharp bread knife to slice the cake in half.
  • Beat the whipping cream and castor sugar until the cream stiffens.
  • Pile whipped cream and cherries on top of bottom slice of cake; replace upper slice and cover this with whipped cream and slightly more delicately placed cherries!
