In a saucepan, combine cherries, sugar, cornstarch, water, and lemon juice.
Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and the cherries soften (about 8-10 minutes).
Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
Make the Chocolate Ganache:
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.
Remove from heat and add the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes.
Stir until smooth and glossy. Let the ganache cool slightly.
Assemble the Black Forest Cheesecake:
Spread the cooled cherry topping evenly over the chilled cheesecake.
Pour the slightly cooled chocolate ganache over the cherry topping, allowing it to drip down the sides of the cheesecake.
Refrigerate the cheesecake for another 30 minutes to set the ganache.
Finish with Garnish:
Before serving, garnish with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, and fresh cherries.
Serve:
Slice and serve the decadent Black Forest Cheesecake Symphony chilled. Enjoy the harmonious blend of rich chocolate, creamy cheesecake, and sweet-tart cherries in every luxurious bite!
Yield:
This recipe makes one 9-inch Black Forest Cheesecake, serving about 10-12 people. Perfect for special occasions or whenever you crave a delightful dessert!
