Recipe Review

I planned to make this dish, but then with Greek yoghurt instead of Quark and Schmand (two dairy products akin to cottage cheese and crème frâiche that you'll only get in Germany anyway) to reduce the amount of fat. Then I realised that the dessert consisted of mainly cherries, chocolate and whipped cream, and I had an immediate Black Forrest association.

I still used Greek yoghurt, as only such large amounts of whipped cream would have been too much but I didn't mix the two; instead, I layered Greek yoghurt, cherries and chocolate shavings (twice), then a layer of whipped cream with cherries and chocolate shavings, topped off with crushed cookies. The cookies were a nice addition to give it a bit more substance, but softened quickly, so this is something you need to add at the last moment. A leftover brownie (not that that will ever exist) would also work perfectly.
