It's Bake-Along time! You guys have been restless, I know. But POW! I'm back with an old favourite from my childhood, the Black Forest Cake. I have so many memories of having this at kids parties in the 80s but I don't think we should right it off just yet. It's still a massive crowd pleaser and I've made a few adjustments here and there and I hope you're going to love it!
You will need...

5 lg eggs, separated
