What a lovely approach to have fun contemporary cherries. This spectacular dessert could be made in about an hour, could be made forward, and is so refreshing for summer time.
Essentially the most work you’ll have to do is pitting the cherries. I wouldn’t have a cherry pitter, so setting the cherry on a bottle and pushing the pit via with a chopstick was my methodology. I discovered that 1.5 kilos of cherries was ample for my tart pan.
The pastry may be very moist, just like cookie dough, so undoubtedly observe instructions and roll between plastic or parchment paper. The recipe makes a beneficiant quantity of dough. My solely critique is that the ultimate crust was maybe too thick, however that’s simply private desire. It tastes like a yummy, not too candy lemon sugar cookie. Additionally, the crust got here out of the tart pan with no downside.
I did use seedless raspberry jam to glaze the cherries as directed because it melts clean and clear. For serving I melted cherry jam with a pair tablespoons amaretto to drizzle over. This brings house that candy cherry taste.
I made this early within the day and by time for dessert after dinner the crust was nonetheless crisp and the cream filling nonetheless clean and fluffy. So good served with an espresso and a small glass of amaretto over ice! This is able to be lovely utilizing contemporary peaches glazed with peach or apricot preserves as nicely.
