I had wanted to make this for Valentine's Day but didn't get to it until March. Oops. But it was no less welcome!
Notes:
- I baked the cake in an 8x8 inch square pan, cut it in half, then split each half to get the four layers of cake. This was a really nice size for two people.
- I filled the split layers with sour cherry jam, then stacked the sandwiches together and stuck them together with the chocolate frosting. There was *just* enough frosting to cover the entire cake. I would make more frosting next time if I knew I were going to do anything other than a single sheet of cake.
Verdict: I thoroughly enjoyed this cake and was sad when it was gone. This is officially my new favorite chocolate frosting. The melted unsweetened chocolate gives it a very rich, intense chocolate flavor that we absolutely loved.
