Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fresh or frozen cherries (pitted)
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 0.5 cups Dark chocolate (chopped or chips)
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold, diced)
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, mix the cherries with 0.5 cups of granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and cornstarch to coat evenly. Transfer the cherry mixture into a 9-inch baking dish.
Scatter the chopped dark chocolate over the cherry mixture.
In another bowl, combine the flour, remaining 0.25 cups of sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the cherries and chocolate, leaving some gaps to allow steam to escape.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the cherry filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Optional: Dust with powdered sugar before serving for a touch of sweetness and elegance.
