Invitation to discuss cakes and possible improvements

Tell us if you liked these recipes. We will be glad to know your opinion. Write in the comments how you cook chocolate cakes.

Sponge cake loves any additives, berries, fruits, both fresh and frozen. It is difficult to freeze some berries, since they not only lose their taste, but also acquire an unpresentable appearance. But with cherries, this procedure is painless. Firstly, a berry with a stone is quite dense, and secondly, as practice shows, the more sour the berry, the better it gives in to freezing.

It has long been noticed that pleases us in winter, sea buckthorn, cranberries, lingonberries and cherries. It is very difficult to freeze Victoria, for this you have to work hard, but with cherries everything is easy and simple, washed, dried on a cloth, put in a bag and enjoy a delicious berry in winter. But it becomes not interesting to eat it without additives, but the cooked cake with cherries is a real holiday for the whole family.

Of course, you can make any cream for the cherry sponge cake, but just imagine how beautiful a chocolate sponge cake with white sour cream and blood red ripe cherry layers would look. This culinary masterpiece will be discussed.

Beauty and taste in chocolate

If you just imagine this variety of colors in this cake, you will immediately want to bake it.

What is required for cooking:

Biscuit:

  • Chicken eggs - 3 pcs.;
  • Wheat flour - 3/4 cup;
  • Sugar - 200 gr.;
  • Cocoa - 1/4 cup

Cream:

  • Sour cream 25% - 500 gr.;
  • Sugar - 1/4 cup;

Impregnation:

  • Cherries, fresh or frozen, pitted - 1 cup;
  • Cherry jam syrup - 4 tbsp. spoons.

Since we use sour cream, it is necessary to weigh the sour cream by putting it in a colander covered with gauze and placing this structure on a saucepan. We put the entire structure in the refrigerator for 12 hours. It is better to do this procedure in the morning, since in the evening we will be preparing a biscuit.

We start preparing the biscuit.

Since we want to make a chocolate sponge cake, it is better to cook it the day before serving.

We disassemble the eggs into yolks and whites. First, beat the whites separately, only after the soft peaks have turned out, we begin to add a third of the sugar norm from the recipe. It is better to introduce sugar gradually, pouring it in a trickle while the mixer is running.

Now let's deal with the bulk ingredients, which must be sifted and mixed well. After that, beat the yolks with the remaining sugar and slowly begin to introduce the dry mixture. Only after the whole dry mixture has been poured into the biscuit blank, beat the dough for another 1-2 minutes and add the proteins prepared in advance. They should be introduced in 2 tablespoons, stirring thoroughly with a plastic spatula after each injection.

Preheat the oven to 180-190 degrees, spread the parchment into the baking dish and pour the dough. We send our biscuit to the oven for 25-30 minutes. Do not constantly check its readiness by opening the door. Biscuit dough really does not like to be disturbed at the time of baking, so it can easily deflate and settle. And instead of a beautiful airy crust, you get a thin chocolate pancake.

When you put the cake in the oven, remove the cherries from the freezer and place the mug with berries in warm water. This will thaw the cherries quickly. If it's summer time and the cherry is available fresh, remove the pits from it. The biscuit is ready, but you need to hold it for 10-15 minutes with a closed, but still cooling oven. Since if you immediately begin to take it out of the heat, then most likely it will fall off, and if it stands in the oven, it will cool down a little there. After 15 minutes, take the finished cake out of the oven and set it to cool at room temperature for another 2 hours. But if time does not allow, then one hour is enough.

When the sponge cake has cooled down, use a long, sharp knife or fishing line to cut it into 2 equal pieces.

Cooking sour cream.

Beat the weighed sour cream at low speed until it becomes thick and fluffy. After that, we begin to pour sugar in a thin stream, slightly increasing the speed.

After all the components of the cake are ready, we begin to collect this culinary masterpiece.

First, saturate each crust on top with cherry jam syrup, which can be mixed with red wine. But this is only if there are no children in the house. If the cherry cake is for toddlers, mix 4 tablespoons of syrup in 100 ml. boiled water. Soak the cakes abundantly with this mixture and leave for 15 minutes. After this procedure, grease the bottom cake with cream, spread the cherries evenly and cover with the second cake. We generously coat the entire cake with the remaining cream, not forgetting about the sides. You can decorate baked goods with cherries, grated chocolate or chopped nuts.

When the cake is completely ready, put it in the refrigerator overnight and serve it with coffee or tea in the morning.

But this cake is assembled on the contrast of colors, it is very tasty, but not everyone loves chocolate cakes. Of course, you can make a biscuit cake from light cakes and soak them with sour cream too. But the joy will be greater if the colors are now reversed. Light cake and dark cream. Making chocolate cream from sour cream is as easy as making a regular one. But in this case, it is better to take instant cocoa for coloring.

Sponge cake with sour cream chocolate cream


But you can bake a completely different cake with cherries, which is made only during the berry ripening season. Why shouldn't you bake in winter? The answer is simple, the berries should be fresh, not absorbed moisture when frozen. It is possible in winter, but from good pitted cherry jam. The more ripe and larger the cherry, the more delicious the biscuit cake will be.

Let's start by listing the ingredients for the cake:

  • Chicken eggs - 3 pcs.;
  • Wheat flour - 180 gr.;
  • Sugar sand - 180 gr.;
  • Sour cream - 2 glasses;
  • Instant gelatin - 1.5 tbsp. spoons;
  • Powdered sugar - 100 gr.;
  • Boiled water - 100 ml.;
  • Fresh cherries - 2 cups;
  • Milk chocolate - 1 bar.

Let's start, as always, with the preparation of a biscuit cake.

Do not worry about weighing sour cream, as we will mix it with gelatin, and you will get a very persistent cream. The cake will turn out to be three-layer, so it will look great in the cut. Just in case, grab another glass of cherries to decorate the cake on top.

You can cook a biscuit, as always, with dividing the eggs into components, but since we don’t need a too high cake, we will not engage in this procedure. A crust made from whole eggs will be more than enough.

We put the oven to warm up and line the bottom of the mold with parchment for baking. By the way, you need to take the form only detachable, since the cake will be collected in it. It is very difficult to get a finished cake out of an ordinary, non-split form, or rather, almost impossible.

Beat the eggs, first neat, and then add sugar. We start working at low speed of the mixer, gradually increasing the speed to maximum. This is what you should not turn out to be from sifting flour, since saturated with air it will give the biscuit the necessary airiness. After you start adding flour, remove the mixer and use a spoon or spatula to cook the dough until tender, stirring the ingredients from bottom to top.

Pour the dough into a prepared mold and put in a preheated oven for 25-30 minutes. At this time, do not open the oven door.

We are dealing with cherries, it must be washed well, dried and the bones removed. When the biscuit is ready, we check it with a wooden skewer. If the tree comes out of the cake dry, then there is no need to doubt the readiness. We leave the cake to stand in the turned off oven, then leave it at room temperature for another hour without removing it from the mold. Only then can you begin to prepare the cream.

The cream is somewhat strange, and is very different from the classic sour cream, but it is also very tasty. The gelatin is almost invisible and the firmness remains good. In order to properly prepare a cream from sour cream and gelatin, it is necessary to dissolve the gelatin in hot water. After all the grains have dissolved and the gelatin has cooled down a little, pour the mass into sour cream, and the powdered sugar will also go there. Beat the sour cream with gelatin and sugar for no more than a minute.

Putting the cake right in the mold.

First, lay out the cherries in an even layer, trying to cover the entire perimeter of the cake with them. Next, pour out the sour cream and put this strange dish in the refrigerator. After a couple of hours, we take out the frozen cake and three chocolate bars on a fine grater. Sprinkle on top of the cake and decorate with beautiful and ripe berries. But do not cover the chocolate with cherries too much, it is enough to make sunbeams from the berries or lay out the child's face.

Put the masterpiece back in the refrigerator, now until the morning. First of all, after you take the cake out of the refrigerator, you need to take it out of the mold and transfer it to a dish. When you cut the cake to treat your family with new pastries, you yourself will be amazed at how beautiful it will be in the cut.

We do not use any impregnation, since under the layer of cream the cherry will be slightly pressed down and the biscuit will soak well with its juice. If you want to make such a dessert in winter, then in summer take care of a delicious pitted cherry jam. In order for the dessert to be just as beautiful and tasty, the cherries must be removed from the jam and allowed to drain a little. It is fashionable to use a thin gauze bag suspended above the glass.

A cake with cherries always turns out to be tasty and appetizing. Refined berry sourness and extraordinary taste notes are perfectly combined with any cakes and cream, allowing you to create truly excellent confectionery masterpieces for any dessert menu.

*******************************************************************************

Today I offer for your consideration a recipe for a chocolate cake: light, summer, moderately sweet and with a pleasant cherry sourness. Sour cream very beneficially complements the cake, emphasizing the aroma of dark dark chocolate and diluting the cherry flavor of the filling. This is a very delicate chocolate cake with chocolate sour cream and cherry. It is prepared quite easily and simply, so that any hostess will cope with the cake in a few hours.

Ingredients:

for chocolate biscuit:

  • 5 eggs;
  • 1 tbsp. flour;
  • 1 tbsp. Sahara;
  • 5 tbsp cocoa powder;
  • 2 tsp baking powder for dough;

for chocolate and sour cream:

  • 1 kg sour cream;
  • 1 tbsp. powdered sugar;
  • 4 tablespoons cocoa powder;
  • a few drops of vanilla extract or a couple of pinches of vanillin;

for glaze:

  • 150 g of dark bitter chocolate;
  • 150 g butter.

For filling:

  • 1 kg fresh or frozen cherries;
  • 1 tbsp. water;
  • 0.5 tbsp. Sahara;
  • 1 tbsp cognac or brandy (optional);
  • 50 g of dark bitter chocolate;
  • 2 tbsp starch.

To assemble the cake, you need a mold with a diameter of 24-27 cm and a height of about 8 cm.

Chocolate cake recipe with cherries and sour cream

1. In order for the sour cream to turn out thick and keep its shape well in the cake, the sour cream should be weighed out before cooking. This will drain the excess liquid (serum). For this task, select a tall and large pot. We spread gauze folded in 2 layers on it, as shown in the step-by-step photo.

2. Gently spread the sour cream in cheesecloth.

As for the choice, it is better to use sour cream 20% fat in the recipe. With it, the cake will turn out to be lighter and less high in calories. If you want the cream of the cake to be fat, you can also use sour cream with a fat content of 30%.

3. Tie the cheesecloth into a knot and hang it on a long chef's spoon so that the sour cream in the cheesecloth does not touch the bottom of the pan. Cover the pan with a lid or plate and put it in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours.

4. Prepare the cherries. We wash the berries, separate them from the branches and take out the seeds in any convenient way. If there is no special device for extruding the bones, you can use a regular hair pin or hairpin. By rounding the pins, we pry the bone at the junction of the berry with the twig and carefully remove the bone.

5. So that the berries do not have a very sharp taste in the cake, we will prepare the cherries in our own juice. So our filling will be much more harmonious in the cake. We put the peeled cherries in a saucepan, add half a glass of water and half a glass of sugar. It is necessary that the cherries in their own juice turn out sour, then a pleasant contrast between sweet and sour in the cake will be felt. We put the pan on low heat.

6. In the meantime, we breed 2 tbsp. starch in the remaining half glass of cold water.

7. When the cherry boils in its own juice, remove the pan from the heat and pour in the starch, stirring the contents of the pan. If you pour starch into a boiling and bubbling liquid, it can grab into lumps, and this is not necessary for us.

8. Bring the cherries in their own juice to a boil and cook until thickened for a minute. We immediately remove the pan from the heat so that the berries do not lose their shape. As it cools, the juice will become thicker and more jelly-like.

9. Leave the cherry to cool completely. For convenience, you can tip it over in a colander. Despite the fact that both berries and juice are needed for the filling, it will be more convenient to select more beautiful and whole cherries for decorating the cake.

10. In order for the chocolate cake with cherries and sour cream to have a certain frame, you need to bake a chocolate sponge cake. Break 5 eggs into a deep bowl and add 1 glass of sugar.

11. Beat with a mixer at high speed until foamy. The egg mass should turn white and grow in volume.

12. Pour in 1 glass of flour, 2 tsp. baking powder and 5 tbsp. cocoa powder.

13. Beat gently with a mixer so that loose ingredients do not scatter in different directions. The chocolate dough should become homogeneous, resembling liquid sour cream in density.

14. Cover a deep baking sheet with parchment and pour the chocolate dough onto it. I am using a special silicone mat. You can also use a regular silicone mold, suitable in diameter for a split mold for assembling a cake. I do not recommend baking a biscuit in a split form, since the batter can flow out of it through the joints. So, we bake a chocolate sponge cake in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 15-25 minutes (depending on the height of the mold).

15. Cool the finished biscuit completely, then cut out a circle along the base of the form. If you baked a sponge cake in a round shape, cut it into 2 cakes.

16. Cut the rest of the chocolate biscuit into small cubes.

17. It's time to start making sour cream. We transfer the weighed sour cream from gauze into a deep bowl. Pour 1 glass of powdered sugar here. If you use sugar instead of powder, then its crystals will be felt in the finished cream. Add 5-6 drops of vanilla extract or a couple of pinches of vanillin. Vanilla will give the delicate cream a pleasant and mesmerizing aroma. Adjust the amount of powdered sugar to your liking, how much you like sweets.

18. Beat the cream with a mixer at medium speed.

19. We begin to collect the cake. Put the chocolate sponge cake on the bottom of the split form. Lubricate it with cherry juice, spread the berries on top.

20. Lubricate with half of the sour cream.

21. Rub 50 g of dark dark chocolate on a fine grater. It goes well with cherries, emphasizing its aroma and sourness in the cake. Place the biscuit cubes, sprinkle with grated chocolate.

22. Pour juice on top and spread the cherries (15-16 pieces are left to decorate the cake).

23. To make the cake even more chocolatey, add 4 tablespoons to the remaining sour cream. cocoa powder and beat with a mixer until smooth.

24. Grease the cake with the remaining chocolate sour cream. We put it in the freezer for 3-4 hours, so that the cake solidifies well on the side and the shape can easily dream. In addition, the chocolate sponge cake after the freezer will be more moist and tender.

25. As you can see in the photo, it is very easy to remove the shape from a frozen cake.

26. With a long and wide knife we ​​transfer the cake to a dish or tray for decoration and serving. The edges of the dish can be covered with foil so that the chocolate icing that we will pour over the cake does not stain the dishes.

27. Break 150 g of dark chocolate into heat-resistant glassware and put 150 g of butter.

28. We send to a steam or water bath. Melt the chocolate and butter, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate mass is smooth.

29. Pour icing on the cake. The colder the surface of the cake, the faster the icing will set. Put the chocolate cake in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. On top, the icing will harden, and inside the cake will completely defrost, become very tender and soft.

30. Decorate the surface of the cake with the delayed cherries. I also used cocktail cherries.

Chocolate cake with cherries and sour cream is ready! You can cut it up and enjoy a delicious dessert.

Bon Appetit!
