Kitchen Utensils
- 4 glasses each 200 ml capacity
- Saucepan
- Hand mixer or stand mixer
Ingredients
- 1 jar of sour cherries
- 2 heaping teaspoons of cornstarch
- 250 ml heavy cream
- 400 g low-fat quark
- 70 g sugar
- 2 packets of vanilla sugar
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 6 tablespoons milk
Drain the cherries, making sure to collect the juice. Mix the cornstarch with a splash of cold water until smooth. Bring the cherry juice to a boil, then stir in the cornstarch mixture. Let it thicken while stirring, then fold in the cherries. Allow the mixture to cool completely.
Whip the cream until stiff peaks form. In a separate bowl, mix the low-fat quark with the sugar and vanilla sugar, then gently fold in the whipped cream. Divide the mixture evenly between two bowls. Stir the cocoa powder and milk into one of the halves.
Layer the cherries, the plain cream, and the chocolate cream in glasses, and decorate with a few cherries on top. Serve immediately or refrigerate overnight.
