Time 3h30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

250 g mascarpone cheese
15 ml Kahlua
30 ml strong brewed coffee
2 teaspoons white sugar
20 fresh cherries, pitted and chopped
75 ml water
1/4 cup white sugar
20 ml Amaretto
5 ml lemon juice
4 -5 shortbread, fingers crumbled
2 fresh cherries
powdered chocolate milk mix

Steps:

To make the cherry sauce, bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan.
Add as much sugar as will dissolve into the water, then add the Amaretto and lemon juice.
Just before it starts to boil, add the cherries, and stir it over a high heat until the liquid takes on the color of the cherries.
Reduce the heat, and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated.
Place the mixture in a small bowl, cover tightly, and place in the fridge.
To make the coffee cream, simply combine the cheese, Kahlua, and coffee in a bowl, and stir until the mixture is uniform in color.
Add sugar to taste, if necessary.
Once the cherry sauce has cooled, arrange the three components in layers in a martini glass, with the biscuit crumbs on the bottom, cherry sauce in the middle, and coffee cream on top.
Refridgerate until the coffee cream is firm.
Decorate with powdered sugar, and place a cherry on top.
