Ingredients

Servings: 12
  • 170 g Dark chocolate
  • 125 g Butter
  • 250 g + 50 g sugar
  • 2 packages Vanilla sugar
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 3 Eggs (Gr. M)
  • 200 g Flour
  • 1 TEASPOON Baking Powder
  • 1 (0,1 l) small bottle of cherry brandy
  • 12 Cherries with stalk
  • 1 package cream stiffener
  • 200 g Whipped cream
  • 250 g Mascarpone
  • 12 Paper baking cups (each approx. 5 cm Ø)
  • 7-10 Tbsp Wood skewer
  • 7-10 Tbsp Piping bag with perforated nozzle

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/circulating air: 150 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Place 1 paper baking tin in each of the recesses of a muffin baking tray (12 recesses).

  2. 2

    Cut off 20 g of chocolate with a peeler and set aside. Coarsely chop the remaining chocolate, melt it with butter in a small pot while stirring at low heat. Pour into a mixing bowl, let cool down briefly.

  3. 3

    Stir 250 g sugar, 1 packet of vanilla sugar, 1 pinch of salt and eggs into the chocolate butter. Mix flour and baking powder, stir in briefly.

  4. 4

    Spread the dough into the tins and bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes. Remove the muffins, prick them often with a wooden skewer and sprinkle them with kirsch while still hot. Lift them out of the cups and let them cool down.

  5. 5

    Wash and drain the cherries. Mix cream stiffener and 1 sachet of vanilla sugar. Whip the cream until stiff, allowing the cream stiffener mixture to trickle in. Stir mascarpone and 50 g sugar until smooth. Fold in the cream.

  6. 6

    Pour the cream into a piping bag with perforated spout. Spray 1 tuff on each muffin, place cherries on top and sprinkle with chocolate shavings.
