  • 1/3 oz of a cake yeast (half a cake, can be subbed
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • flour , for kneading
  • 1 lb tart cherries, pitted (drained canned cherries could be used instead)
  • 4 oz butter, cut into small pieces (1 stick)
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 4 oz sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar , sifted
  • 2 -3 tbsp water or 2 -3 tbsp milk

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 10 springform tart pan.

  3. Sift flour into a large mixing bowl, and make a well in the center. Crumble the yeast into the well, then sprinkle the sugar and salt over it.
  4. Put the milk in a small saucepan with the butter. Gently heat the milk and butter until the butter has melted. Pour this over the flour/yeast. Knead the mixture by hand until it forms a smooth dough.
  5. Cover dough and allow to rest in a warm place for about 30 minutes, or until dough has doubled in volume.
  6. Place risen dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it again.
  7. Roll dough out and place it into the prepared tart pan, pressing the dough up the sides of the pan.
  8. FILLING:.
  9. Place the cherries in the prepared shell. In a medium bowl, combine the flour and sugar. Using a pastry blender or two forks, cut in the butter until mixture becomes crumbly. Sprinkle crumbly mixture evenly over cherries.
  10. Bake tart in a preheated oven for about 30 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for approximately 10 minutes.
  11. GLAZE:.
  12. In a small mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 2 tbs of water or milk. Stir until smooth. If needed, add more water or milk, 1/2 tsp at a time, until desired consistency for drizzling is reached. Drizzle glaze over slightly cooled tart.
