Ingredients
  • 3 eggs
  • 130 gr sugar
  • 60 gr flour
  • 30 gr cocoa
  • 150 ml milk
  • 200 ml cream
  • 200 gr sour cherries
  • 200 gr sweet cherries
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 50 gr chocolate
  • butter
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 C (350 F) and butter your dish. I used a 15x24 cm (6x9 inches) rectangular dish. You can also use a 9-10 inch round dish.
  2. Place pitted cherries in the dish and scatter over the chocolate chunks.
  3. Whisk eggs with the sugar, vanilla extract, milk, cream and a pinch of salt.
  4. Mix the flour and cocoa in a separate bowl and sift into the egg mixture. Whisk until smooth.
  5. Pour the mixture over the fruit.
  6. Bake 40-45 minutes until nicely puffed.
  7. Serve warm dusted with icing sugar.
Notes
Can be served cold.

You can use frozen fruits.

You can first soak the cherries in kirsch.

It will puff up in the oven but deflate once you take it out. Don't think you've done something wrong, that's normal.

You can be really naughty and scatter some more chocolate chunks as you take it out of the oven :):)
