Yield Makes about 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds frozen black cherries, thawed, drained, and juice reserved
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons kirsch
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Whisk reserved juice, sugar, kirsch, and cornstarch in a small saucepan until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes. Let syrup cool slightly. Combine syrup and cherries in a medium bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 2 days.

Tips for Making Black Cherry Filling:

  • Use fresh, ripe black cherries for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh cherries, you can use frozen or canned cherries, but the filling may not be as flavorful.
  • Pit the cherries before using them in the filling. You can use a cherry pitter or a paring knife to remove the pits. Cut the cherries in half
  • Use a combination of sugar and cornstarch to thicken the filling. This will help to prevent the filling from becoming too runny.
  • Add a squeeze of lemon juice to the filling to help brighten the flavor. You can also add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor.
  • Cook the filling until it has thickened and reached a low boil. This will take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Let the filling cool slightly before using it. This will help to prevent the filling from becoming too runny.

Conclusion:

Black cherry filling is a delicious and versatile filling that can be used in a variety of desserts. It is perfect for pies, tarts, cobblers, and cakes. It can also be used as a topping for ice cream or yogurt. With its sweet and tart flavor, black cherry filling is sure to please everyone.
