Black Forest Trifle

If you haven't been following Cherapeno, you need to start.

Yesterday Nicisme posted a simple recipe she calls Black Forest Trifle. She layers chocolate ganache, chocolate sponge cake, fresh cherries marinated in kirsh (the juice and liqueur poured over the cake), and tops the trifle with whipped cream--you can also add grated chocolate. What could be easier and better. Luckily fresh cherries are in abundance here in Berkeley. Are they near you?

I really love a good trifle, and this recipe is terrific!
