Recipe for a mini baking pan

Cream the butter, sugar, and egg until fluffy. Stir in the flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder. Add the milk until the batter falls heavily from the spoon. Pour the batter into a greased mini heart-shaped baking pan. Bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes (depending on the oven, use a skewer to test). Let the cake cool and then cut in half horizontally. Whip the cream until stiff peaks and set aside. Use a spoon to slightly hollow out the bottom cake layer and add the cherries (save one for decoration). Spread a layer of cream on the bottom layer. Place the second layer on top and press down lightly. Brush the outside of the heart with the remaining cream and decorate with chocolate shavings. Decorate with the cherry. Tip: If you like, you can mix cherry juice with cake glaze and spread some of it over the cherries. The leftover batter from the hollowing out process can be used with cream and a few cherries to make a small dessert.
