Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 15 minutes

A sweet main course or dessert

The specified quantity is enough as a main course for 2 or 3 servings, and as a dessert for 6 servings. Preheat the oven to 180°C (top/bottom heat). Drain the cherries well in a sieve and collect the juice. Carefully mix the quark, egg yolks, semolina, cinnamon, sweetener, and baking powder. Beat the egg whites until stiff and fold in. Butter a baking dish. Pour half of the quark mixture into the dish. Spread the cherries on the quark and cover with the remaining quark. Break the rusk into pieces and spread it on the casserole. Drizzle with melted butter. Bake on the lowest rack of the oven for 45 minutes. If the rusk pieces start to turn dark, cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil. Mix the cherry juice with the cornstarch and bring to a boil. Serve the casserole in portions on plates and drizzle with the cherry juice.
