Equipment
- parchment paper
- rimmed baking sheet
Ingredients
- 12 oz frozen dark cherries halved
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 refrigerated piecrust
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the cherries, sugar and cornstarch. Stir the cherries until evenly coated. Add the corn syrup, almond extract, and chocolate chips and mix until well combined.
- Carefully roll out the pie crust on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Spoon the cherry mixture into the center of the piecrust. Spread out the cherry mixture, leaving a 2-inch (5-cm) bare margin around the crust. Bring the edges of the crust over the fruit, folding it over the cherry mixture.
- Brush the crust with the cream and sprinkle with brown sugar.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let the galette cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
