Submitted by A la Carte

"This is good with any canned fruit. A bit of a cheat, but it makes it a fun dessert for the kids or even for dinner guests."

 

• Ready In: 2hrs 10mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 15 ounces black cherries
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 7 ounces plain yogurt
• 2 ounces sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• sugar, for carmelising

directions

1. Drain the cherries, and spoon equally into 6 rmekins and set aside.
2. In a bowl, whisk the cream into soft peaks.
3. Fold in the yogurt with the 2 oz of sugar or splenda, and the vanilla.
4. Spoon on top of the cherries, and make the top level. Chill for a couple of hours or overnight.
5. When ready to serve, sprinkle the tope of each ramekin with sugar in an even layer. Caramelise under a very hot preheated grill, or with a small kitchen blow torch. (if using the grill, make sure it is very hot so that the sugar quickly caramelises but the cream and yogurt don't melt!).
