Method

  • Step 1

    Put all pastry ingredients in the food processor bowl with the dough attachment. Pulse until everything is well combined. If the dough feels to dry you can add splash of water. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap to form a disc. Chill in the fridge for about 15 minutes.

  • Step 2

    Rolling out the pastry: place the dough between two parchment papers. Using the rolling pin press the rolling pin gently couple of times to ease the dough out, then roll out the dough to about 28-30cm, and 3mm thickness.

  • Step 3

    Prepare your tart tin by greasing lightly with butter. Gently lift the rolled dough and flip into tart tin and patch any cracks and imperfections. Trim the edges to make the dough even.

  • Step 4

    Chill the pastry in the fridge while preparing the filling.

  • Step 5

    Melt chocolate with butter and double cream, you can do it on the stove or in the microwave. Let it cool for a few minutes. Using a hand mixer, beat the eggs with sugar until it gets fluffy. Add melted chocolate, cacao powder, almond meal and mix until everything is combined.

  • Step 6

    Remove the pastry from the fridge, transfer chocolate mixture into the tin, top with fresh cherries. Bake in 160 degrees for 45-60 min or until is set in the middle.
