SOUR CHERRY AND LEMON ICE-BOX CAKE



Sour Cherry and Lemon Ice-Box Cake image

Sour cherries seem to be an elusive fruit. Finding them fresh in the supermarket is nigh on impossible and finding them at a greengrocer or farmers market seems almost as hard. Thankfully, the frozen variety is a little easier to track down and I hoard them when I see them. I would encourage you to get your hands on some for this dessert. You can use regular sweet cherries, but the flavor won't be quite the same, so double the lemon juice, reduce the sugar a little, and add a few drops of almond extract to get you close. You can either freeze this, akin to a semifreddo, which is my preference, or simply chill it in the refrigerator, which will, of course, give it a softer finish.

Yield Serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

Unsalted butter or neutral-tasting oil, for greasing
For the sour cherry compote:
600 g (1 lb 5 oz) frozen pitted sour cherries, defrosted
120 ml (4 fl oz / ½ cup) kirsch
100 g (3½ oz / ½ cup) caster (superfine) sugar
Juice of ½ lemon
2 tablespoons cornflour (cornstarch)
For the filling:
250 g (9 oz / 1⅛ cups) mascarpone, at room temperature
35 g (1¼ oz / ¼ cup) icing (powdered) sugar
800 ml (28 fl oz / 3⅓ cups) double (heavy) cream
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
150 g (5½ oz / ½ cup) lemon curd
270 g (9¾ oz) digestives, graham crackers or speculoos biscuits

Steps:

  • Lightly grease the baking tin and line the base with parchment paper. If you want to remove the cake from the tin to serve, you can line the tin with a piece of parchment paper that overhangs the two long sides.
  • For the cherry compote, place the cherries, kirsch, sugar and lemon juice into a large saucepan and cook over a medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, until the fruit softens and releases a lot of juice. Use a slotted spoon to remove the cherries to a heatproof bowl, leaving the syrup in the pan. Continue cooking the syrup until it is reduced to about 240 ml (8½ fl oz / 1 cup).
  • Place the cornflour in a small bowl and whisk in a little of the cherry syrup to form a smooth paste. Add this to the cherry syrup in the pan and simmer, stirring, for a couple of minutes, or until slightly thickened. Pour the syrup over the fruit, cool slightly, then cover with clingfilm and refrigerate until cool.
  • For the filling, whisk together the mascarpone, icing sugar, 600 ml (20 fl oz / 2½ cups) of the cream and the vanilla in a bowl until the mixture just starts to hold its shape. Add the lemon curd and continue whisking until the mixture holds soft peaks.
  • To assemble the dessert, spread a thin layer of the lemon cream over the base of the prepared tin, then cover with a layer of biscuits, breaking them up as needed. Spread over half of the remaining lemon cream and then dollop over about a third of the cherry compote. Repeat the layering a second time and then finish with a final layer of biscuits.
  • Cover the tin with clingfilm and refrigerate or freeze for at least 4 hours before serving.
  • Just before serving, whip the remaining cream to soft peaks and spread over the dessert. Cut into slices and serve each portion with a spoonful of the remaining compote.
  • Store in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks; if refrigerated, it will keep for 3-4 days.

FIZZY SOUR CHERRY LEMONADE



Fizzy Sour Cherry Lemonade image

We've spiked this lemonade with vodka to make a refreshing summer cocktail, but you can omit the alcohol. One batch will completely fill your blender, so if you need more, make multiple batches rather than doubling or tripling the recipe.

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 lb fresh or thawed frozen sour cherries* (1 qt), stemmed
1 cup fresh lemon juice
3/4 to 1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups vodka (optional)
2 to 3 cups chilled sparkling water
Garnish: fresh sour cherries with stems

Steps:

  • Blend cherries (including pits) in a blender at low speed until skins have broken down enough to brightly color liquid (some of pits will be coarsely chopped). Pour through a sieve into a 2-quart pitcher, pressing on and discarding solids. Add lemon juice and sugar (to taste), stirring until sugar is dissolved.
  • Pour 3 tablespoons vodka (if using) into each of 8 tall (10-ounce) glasses filled with ice. Add 1/2 cup cherry lemonade to each and top off with sparkling water.
  • *We used IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) cherries from Friske Orchards (231-599-2604), in Charlevoix, Michigan.
