Get excited about dessert with this Black Forest Tart

This delicious moist black forest tart was inspired by the traditional black forest cake. It is a cut above the rest, with fresh whipped cream and cherry liqueur. You will enjoy to make this tart, just as I do!

It’s so simple to make and it tastes wonderfully rich with the liqueur that is poured into it. Decadence and delight is what I experience when serving and eating this tart.
