- Prepare the Jell-O Berry Black jelly powder using a little less water than called for on the package. For example, if the package calls for 2 cups of water, use only 1.5 cups. This is to make the jelly a little stiffer than normal. Pour into a square cake pan to set. When set, cut the jelly into small (1-inch) cubes.
- Cut the cake into small (1-inch) cubes.
- Sprinkle Kirsch or schnaaps on the cake.
- Fill the bottom of the bowl with a layer of cake.
- Layer on half the pie filling.
- Add a layer of jelly cubes.
- Repeat layers.
- Top with last third of cake cubes.
- Cover with a thick layer of topping.
- Decorate with chocolate curls, or a sprinkling of cocoa, and marischino cherries.
