The single-serving Pavesini and sour cherry cakes are the perfect dessert to serve at the end of a meal, or the ideal solution when guests arrive at the last minute. Besides being irresistibly indulgent, they are quick to prepare and win everyone over at the first bite.
For this recipe I chose a special ingredient: the iconic Pavesini ChocoTune, the new chocolate recipe. They are truly delicious and give an even more intense and enveloping note. The cakes are filled with a soft white chocolate mousse, creamy and enveloping, and I also add sour cherries. Juicy and sweet, they provide a pleasant fresh contrast. The result is a perfect combination of textures and flavors: soft, creamy and slightly fruity. An elegant dessert, quick to make and perfect for making any occasion special, even the most impromptu ones! Don’t forget to follow me on my social channels on Facebook Instagram and YouTube.

How to make the single-serving Pavesini and sour cherry cakes
Start by whipping the heavy cream until you obtain a firm consistency.
Work the mascarpone with the powdered sugar, mixing with an electric whisk until you get a smooth, homogeneous cream. Then incorporate the white chocolate melted in a water bath, mixing gently. Fold in the whipped cream, mixing from the bottom up.
Take the serving plate and place the ring mold, then line the inside perimeter and the bottom with the Pavesini ChocoTune briefly soaked in milk.
Fill with a layer of chocolate mousse, then level the surface with a spatula if necessary.
Transfer to the refrigerator and let set, covered, for at least 20 minutes or until serving time.
Remove the ring mold carefully and decorate as desired with sour cherries and chocolate sprinkles before serving.
