1
Reserve 8 cherries for garnish. Remove the stems from the remaining cherries, cut in half and pit. Blend 2 tbsp of the cherry juice with the cornstarch and place in a pan with the remaining cherry juice and sugar. Heat gently, stirring all the time until just thickened. Add the cherries and remove from the heat and leave to cool completely.
2
Use a 2 1/2 inch round cookie cutter to stamp out 8 circles from the pound cake slices and cut each circle in half horizontally. Whip the cream and vanilla extract together until soft peaks form.
3
Sprinkle the Kirsch over half the cake circles and top each with a spoonful of the cherry compote. Carefully spoon the chocolate mousse and 3/4 of the whipped cream over the cherries then gently place the remaining cake circles on top. Spread the remaining cream on top of each cake and decorate with the reserved cherries.
