Making the Black Forest Dessert

Pour the dough into a rectangular springform pan and bake for about 30 minutes in a preheated oven at about 180 °C. Let the base cool and cut into 20 bars. Mix the cherry juice, 20 g of the cherry purée, sugar to taste and the agar-agar, let it steep briefly, bring to a boil and then cool. Then mix it into a homogeneous mixture. Mix the cherries with the rest of the purée and sweeten with a little sugar if necessary. Whip the Oldenburger Whipping Cream with the vanilla sugar and kirschwasser and spoon it into a piping bag with a round nozzle. Spray the kirschwasser cream onto the bars. For each serving, join two bars like a sandwich and put them on their sides on a plate.

The Final Touch

Decorate with cherries and cherry purée and serve garnished with mint.
