1 c Heavy cream -- whipped
8 oz Semisweet Chocolate Bar (1)

CAKE: Beat eggs, sugar, and vanilla together until
thick and fluffy, about 10 minutes. Alternately fold
chocolate and flour into the egg mixture, ending with
flour. Pour the batter into 3 8-inch cake pans that
have been well greased and floured. Bake in a
preheated 350F degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes or
until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out
clean. Cool cakes in pans for 5 minutes; turn out on
racks to cool completely.

SYRUP: Make syrup by mixing together sugar and water
and boiling for 5 minutes. When syrup has cooled, stir
in kirsch. Prick the cake layers and pour syrup over
all 3 layers.

FILLING: To make the butter-cream filling, beat
together sugar and butter until well blended. Add egg
yolk; beat until light and fluffy, about 3 to 5
minutes. Fold in Kirsch.

CAKE ASSEMBLY: To assemble cake, place 1 layer on a
cake plate. Spread with butter cream filling. Using
3/4 cup of the cherries, which have been patted dry,
drop cherries evenly over cream. Place second layer on
cake. Repeat. Place third layer on top. Fold 2 T
confectioners' sugar into the whipped cream. Cover the
sides and top of the cake with whipped cream. Decorate
top of cake with remaining 1/2 cup cherries.

To make chocolate curls from chocolate bar, shave (at
room temperature) with a vegetable peeler. Refrigerate
curls until ready to use. Press chocolate curls on
sides of cake & sprinkle a few on the top. Chill.
