Then feel free to get to work, and you will not regret it - you will like the delicious cherry pie, no doubt, without exception. But first decide on what recipe to do baking.
Dessert Features
It is worth noting immediately that any delight cherry pie always consists of three layers.
The first layer is dough.It can be completely different. Love crumbly? Make a shortbread cake. Biscuit base is considered more tender and melting in the mouth. Cherry puff pastry is also baked. When using multiple layers, you get crispy pastries. In any case, the bottom layer of the product must be made of dough. The most convenient option for cooking is a rolled out circle, laid on a baking sheet or container, so that there are bumpers. They will help to keep the shape while filling the "inside" of the cake with cream and cherries.
The second layer is cream.It should be thick in consistency, sweet in taste and creamy in composition. Therefore, the main component is usually Mascarpone cheese or similar Omichka and Zabava. If you do not have these products, try making a delight cherry pie with thick custard, cooked with fat milk and mixed with beaten curd and butter.
The third layer is cherries.It is hard to imagine such a cake without sour berries. They can be fresh or canned, but comply with the prerequisite - the absence of seeds. Sometimes the cherries are laid directly on the dough, and the top is covered with cream. The taste of this, in principle, does not change.
