How to Make A 1 Cherry Cobbler Tart A1
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 pint fresh or frozen cherries, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for 6-7 minutes, or until cherries have softened and released their juices.
- Set aside to cool slightly.
- Unfold 1 sheet (14.1 oz) of puff pastry and cut into 9 equal squares.
- Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
- Press each puff pastry square into a muffin cup, pressing the dough up the sides to form a tart shell.
- In a medium bowl, combine 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Evenly spoon the mascarpone mixture into the prepared puff pastry cups.
- Top each mascarpone filling with the cooled cherry mixture.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter. Cut the butter into the flour mixture using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cherry filling.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely to room temperature.
- While the tartlets cool, prepare the ganache: Place 4 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1 tablespoon A1 Steak Sauce over medium heat until hot and almost boiling.
- Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate and let it sit for 1 minute.
- Whisk until smooth and glossy.
- To serve: Drizzle a small amount of ganache onto each serving plate.
- Top with a cooled tartlet and drizzle with additional ganache.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
