  5. Allow the chocolate to cool for 5 minutes at room temperature.
  6. Add milk and egg to the chocolate and mix well.
  7. Add the chocolate mixture to the flour mixture and mix well.

Notes

  • Almonds go really well with cherries but you can use any type of nuts you want.
  • If you prefer dark chocolate, you can use extra-dark or dark semi-sweet morsels (70% cacao) if you don't want to the semi-sweet morsels.   
  • This dessert is best served with vanilla ice cream but you can also add whipped cream or pour cream on top.
