2 to 5 tablespoons sugar (adjust according to taste)
½ cup whipping cream
¾ teaspoon almond extract
slivered almonds, for garnish
Method
Preheat oven to 250.
To make the chocolate filling:
Put chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Heat cream and half-and-half in a medium saucepan over medium heat until simmering, then pour over chocolate. Let sit a few minutes, then stir gently until smooth.
Break egg into a separate medium bowl, then pour into chocolate mixture, whisking constantly until incorporated (keep whisk in contact with bottom of bowl so as not to whip in air bubbles).
Pour mixture into the tart shell and bake until just set (no longer jiggles), 25 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely.
To make your topping:
Warm cherries in a saucepan over low heat with granulated sugar to taste until sugar melts. Whip cream with 2 tbsp. sugar and almond extract until soft peaks form.
Cut tart into slices and serve each with a few cherries and a dollop of cream on top.
