The answer to the question is extremely simple - a pie with cherries. The recipe does not take much time and does not cause trouble. Tasty, economical, and most importantly useful and beautiful.

Before you prepare a cherry pie , you need to prepare some ingredients. For a dish you need 150 grams of flour, butter and cottage cheese. If there is, 1 egg, it will also be handy. These are the components for the test. For the filling it is worth preparing 300 grams of cherries, 150 grams of sugar, 300 grams of sour cream and 5 egg yolks.

So, let's start cooking dessert. The first thing to do is to put butter and cottage cheese in the freezer beforehand so that they become harder. After the products cool, they should be chopped in small pieces. They should look like a different sized crumb. Pre-sift flour, salt and mix. Then it must be combined with chopped butter and cottage cheese. The resulting dough should not be a homogeneous mass. It should resemble many differently sized lumps. This is necessary to ensure that in the future, during the rolling process, the dough is slightly stratified. In addition, when baking, the fat contained in the products will make the base of the cake more lush and bulky. If you mix the dough incorrectly, the puff cherry cake will not work.

The prepared mixture must be laid out in the form of a volcano with a crater. In the very center, drive in the yolks and quickly mix. When the mixture becomes a kind of lump, the process of mixing should be stopped. The resulting mixture should not be excessively smooth and homogeneous, this is a prerequisite. Only then the cherry pie, the recipe of which is quite simple, will be unique.

For baking a dish, any available shape, the diameter of which varies from 24 to 28 centimeters, is suitable. The dough should be rolled out and put in a mold. The mixture should completely cover the bottom and edges. In addition, the dough should be pierced in several places with a fork, and only then sent to the freezer. The workpiece should be cooled for at least 20 - 25 minutes.

It should be cleaned of seeds, and then put it tightly on the filling. In the event that the edges extend slightly beyond the walls of the mold, they can be wrapped directly on top of the filling.

The baking process should last at least 1 hour at a temperature of 200 degrees. The cherry cake, the recipe of which is described above, will be ready when the dough acquires a golden hue. Taking out the pie from the oven, you'll notice that the filling is very liquid. Experiencing is not worth it. As the dessert cools, it will become more dense.

Also, in order for the sour cream filling to become a little thicker, you can use flour or mango. This will cause the dough to thicken. An additional taste of the dish gives 50 grams of cognac in sour cream.
