Prepare the buttercream: Cream the softened butter until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the sifted powdered sugar until well combined.

Beat in the egg yolks one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and Kirschwasser, until the frosting is smooth and creamy.

Add the second sponge cake layer (or continue layering ladyfingers). Cover the entire cake with the remaining buttercream, ensuring all sides are coated.
