The reason is that the cake recipe contains several ingredients that are considered aphrodisiacs: cherries, cocoa and, of course, alcohol. Therefore, such a combination not only gives gastronomic pleasure, but also sets the mood for flirting. Cognac is most often used to soak the Drunken Cherry biscuits. Canned berries are chosen for the cake.

Cooking

Step 1

In a deep bowl, mix all the dry ingredients for the sponge cake: flour, sugar (vanilla and regular), salt, cocoa, soda and baking powder. Separately mix the eggs, milk and vegetable oil. Combine the two mixtures. When mixing, you will get a very thick mass. Pour in a glass of boiling water, vinegar and mix until smooth. Pour the mass into a baking dish and put in the oven, preheated to 200 ℃. After 30 minutes, reduce the temperature to 150 ℃ and leave the sponge cake in the oven for another 30 minutes. Cool.

Step 2

While the sponge cake is cooling, prepare the cream. Pour the condensed milk into the butter and mix with a mixer. This will take about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Carefully cut off the top of the sponge cake and set aside. Scrape out the pulp and set aside, you will need it for the filling. You should have a sponge cake bowl about 1 cm thick. Dip a brush in the cherry juice left over from the canned cherries and soak the bottom and sides of the sponge cake with it. Soak the top of the sponge cake with cherry syrup as well.

Step 4

Set aside a couple of pieces of pulp for decoration. Divide the remaining pulp into small pieces, put into the prepared cream, add the cherries together with the cognac and mix well. Distribute the resulting filling in a biscuit bowl, cover with a biscuit "cap" and put in the refrigerator for 60 minutes.

Step 5

While the cake is cooling, make the glaze. Bring milk, butter, starch, cocoa and sugar to a boil over low heat, stirring constantly. Wait until the mixture becomes smooth and the consistency of condensed milk. Adjust the thickness with milk.

Step 6

Pour the resulting glaze over the cake and let cool slightly.

Step 7

While the glaze is setting, grind the reserved pieces of biscuit pulp in a blender. Sprinkle the sides of the cake with these crumbs. Decorate the top of the cake with a scattering of berries. Let it sit for about 90 minutes.
