Ingredients

Servings: 4
  • 4 discs (à 50 g; 14 x 14 cm) deep-frozen puff pastry
  • 1 glass (720 ml) Sour cherries
  • 60 g Sugar
  • 1 package Pudding powder "Vanilla Flavor"
  • 250 g Mascarpone
  • 1 Splash of lemon juice
  • 200 g Whipped cream
  • 7-10 Tbsp Grease
  • baking paper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Dried peas

Directions

  1. 1

    Place the puff pastry sheets next to each other on a baking tray lined with baking paper and allow to defrost for approx. 10 minutes. In the meantime, drain the cherries on a sieve and collect the juice. Bring 250 ml cherry juice and 30 g sugar to the boil in a saucepan.

  2. 2

    Stir pudding powder and remaining cherry juice until smooth, pour into the hot juice and simmer for about 1 minute while stirring. Remove from the heat, add the cherries and allow to cool.

  3. 3

    Grease 4 Tartelette moulds with lift-off base (approx. 12 cm Ø). Pour the dough into the greased Tartelette cups, press down the edges and prick several times with a fork. Cut off excess dough at the edge with a knife.

  4. 4

    Cut baking paper to the size of the baking tins. Cover the puff pastry with baking parchment, add dried peas. Bake in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: see manufacturer) for 12-15 minutes until completely dry.

  5. 5

    Take out, remove dry peas and baking paper. Leave the Tartelettes to cool in the moulds.

  6. 6

    Stir the mascarpone with a whisk until smooth. Stir in 30 g sugar and lemon juice. Whip cream until stiff, fold in. Fill the mascarpone cream into the tartelettes. Add a little cherry compote.

  7. 7

    Add the rest of the compote.
