At a recent A.A. gathering a desert was served that someone said was "Cherries Jubilee". They were small tarts that had a tasty, sweet cake base with 3 canned Bing (dark) cherries on top. It was the cake that really made it. Looking in my receipe books I realize it couldn't have been Cherries Jubilee, as most recipies call for cognac. Also, the base is just cornstarch. What could it have been? Tarts seem more like an entire pie, as do tortes. I found a receipe here for "Swedish Almond Tartletts" that I suppose I could top with cherries, but I'd still like something with a more simple, sweet cake base. It was only about 1/2 full of the tart shells, the rest was fruit (no whipped cream). Does this sound familiar to anyone, or would someone know of a nice cherry/cake dessert I could make in a 3-inch tart shell?
