Cherry clafoutis



"Smell good! Look great! It's going to be a success!" I said to myself while waiting.

Last week I made a cherry clafoutis. I love fruits inside pastry. The natural flavor from fruits is always impeccable. The taste is ten times more unforgettable than artificial flavor. I found a recipe and modified it a bit and I got a very impressive result, so I'd like to share it with you.

Ingredients
- One bl. fresh cherry
- Two large eggs and two extra yolks
- Six tablespoon flour
- One-third cup sugar
- One-fourth teaspoon salt
- One tablespoon vanilla extract
- Two-third package of cream cheese (from Trader Joe's)
- Some orange zest

The fun!
- Mix eggs, yolks, one-sixth cup sugar, and salt in a big bowl
- Use the highest speed to mix the ingredients well for eight minutes, the mix should look puffy after the beating
- Add flour, vanilla, and cream to the bowl
- Reduce the speed to medium and beat the mix to well blended
- Take a small bowl and put cherry, one-sixth cup sugar and zest in
- Use hands to well mix the above ingredients in the small bowl
- Preheat the oven to 375 degree
- Put the baking pan in the oven and heat it for 4 minutes once the oven is preheated
- Apply some PAM to the pan
- Put the cherry mix from the small bowl to the baking pan
- Pour the mix from the big bowl in to cover the cherry
- Put the pan in the oven
- Bake 35 minutes

The clafoutis is delicious and light. Your will love it!
