7. Gently spread half of the mascarpone mixture on top of the cake.
8. Sprinkle half of the chopped cherries on top of the mascarpone & top with all of the grated chocolate.
9. Crumble second cake layer over everything & gently spread the rest of the mascarpone mixture on top. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
