https://devinedishes.com/the-ultimate-black-forest-cake/, known in German as Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte (literally “Black Forest cherry torte”), is a layered chocolate cake filled and frosted with whipped cream and cherries. The traditional German version includes Kirsch, a clear cherry brandy distilled from the sour Morello cherries grown in the Black Forest region of southwestern Germany. The “Black Forest” in the name doesn’t describe the flavor, it refers to the geographic region and possibly to Kirsch, a specialty product of that area.
