Ingredients
● Cookie Crumble

● Fresh Cherries
● Dark Chocolate
Preparation
Chocolate cookie crumble
It all starts with cookie crumble! There is no need to have chocolate cookies, graham cookies (digestive biscuits), or similar cookies work well. Just add dark chocolate and a few other ingredients, blend and voila – you have chocolate cookie crumble.
Or if you don’t have any cookies, no problem. Just make the cookie crumble from scratch using simple pantry ingredients like rolled oats.
Cherry cream and cherries
For this cake cherry jam or cherry marmalade is an essential ingredient. You can make cherry cream simply by mixing vegan whipped cream with cherry jam or marmalade! The result is a sweet and yummy cherry flavored cream.
To enhance the cherry flavor, chop fresh cherries and use it as a layer in the cake. You can also add a dollop of cherry jam or marmalade with the cherries.
Final touches to the chocolate cherry cake in a jar
Ideally, you would make these cakes about 30 minutes or an hour before serving. This timing allows the flavors to really soak and mix together. Avoid adding the final touch, which is the piped whipped cream on top, until later.
Just place the jars well covered in the fridge.
This also gives enough time for the jars to cool. Meanwhile melt dark chocolate and prepare to decorate the jars!
I think a delicious melted chocolate decoration on the rim of the jar adds a festive touch. It gives these cakes in a jar a nice look. When ready to serve decorate with melted chocolate and pipe cherry cream on top. Cake making couldn’t get any easier than this.
