Black Forest Cherry Dessert

Burgers are fantastic, soups and sandwiches are scrumptious, and don't even get me started about the dessert.

Recipe Summary Black Forest Cherry Dessert

This dessert combines the flavors of black forest cake - cherries, cream, chocolate - but takes much less time. I make it with canned sour cherries.

Ingredients | Black Forest Cafe Dallas

2 cups milk

4 tablespoons cornstarch, divided

⅓ cup white sugar

½ (.25 ounce) package unflavored gelatin

1 cup heavy whipping cream

3 teaspoons vanilla sugar

2 (14.5 ounce) cans morello (sour) cherries in syrup, drained, syrup reserved

2 ounces semisweet chocolate, grated

Directions

Combine 2 tablespoons of milk and 3 tablespoons cornstarch in a small cup. Pour remaining milk and sugar into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Whisk in cornstarch-milk mixture, and cook until milk starts to thicken, about 2 minutes.

Pour 1/8 cup cold water into a bowl. Sprinkle gelatin powder on top. Let stand until softened, about 1 minute. Add 1/8 cup of hot milk mixture to the bowl with the gelatin, and stir constantly until granules are completely dissolved.

Remove saucepan from heat and stir in dissolved gelatin mixture. Cool milk mixture completely, 1 to 2 hours.

Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl using an electric mixer until frothy. Add vanilla sugar gradually, continuing to beat until firm peaks form. Fold into the saucepan with the chilled milk mixture.

Pour cherry syrup into a small saucepan. Mix in 1 tablespoon cornstarch and bring to a boil over medium heat until thickened. Immediately stir in cherries and pour into a glass bowl. Pour cream mixture on top in a thick layer and sprinkle with grated chocolate. Refrigerate until firm.
