Instructions

  7. Spread the cake with a spatula in a hinged 12″ mold with parchment paper at the bottom.
  8. Bake for 45 minutes.

  10. Heat the water for the syrup and add the cherries and vodka. Simmer for 10 minutes until cherries are soft. Let it cool.

  12. Place cake cubes at the bottom of the glass.
  13. Put about 1/4 cup of whipped cream on the cake.
  14. Pour syrup on top of the whipped cream.
