For Cake:

Preheat oven to 350F. Butter 8-inch-diameter cake pan with 2-inch-high

completely.

For Glaze:

Bring whipping cream, slivovitz and light corn syrup to simmer in
heavy medium saucepan. Reduce heat to low. Add semisweet chocolate
and whisk until melted and smooth. Let glaze stand until cool but
still pourable, whisking occasionally.

Place cake on serving platter. Slide waxed paper under edges. Spread
jam over top. Pour glaze over top and sides of cake. Smooth top and
