    Bake in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: not suitable/ gas: level 2) for 15-20 minutes. Then turn out onto a damp tea towel sprinkled with sugar. Remove baking paper immediately. For the buttercream, stir pudding powder, 75 g sugar and 5 tablespoons of milk until smooth. Bring 450 ml milk to the boil and stir in the pudding powder. Bring to the boil again while stirring and simmer for 1 minute at low heat. Pour the pudding into a bowl, cover with foil directly on the surface and let it cool down at room temperature. Beat butter at room temperature for about 15 minutes until very creamy. Stir in the pudding by the spoonful. Halve the sponge cake plate. Cover either with 2 baking frames or with folded aluminium foil. Add butter cream and smooth it down. Put everything in a cool place for about 1 hour. Meanwhile drain the cherries and collect the juice.
