Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Make crust:
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make dough: In a food processor, pulse almonds until finely ground. Add sugar, flour, zest (if desired) (I didn’t add it), and salt; pulse until combined. Add butter, pulsing until coarse crumbs form with no large butter lumps (dough should clump together when squeezed with fingers).
  3. Immediately transfer dough to a 20cm loosed bottom tart pan. Using a measuring cup, evenly press dough in bottom and up sides of pan.
  4. Bake in center of oven until golden brown and firm to the touch, about 45 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
  5. Filling:
  6. Beat the cream cheese and powder sugar together till fluffy. In another clean bowl, beat the heavy cream and powder sugar till thick and holds its shape. Fold in the cream cheese and sugar mixture till completely combined. Fold in the hazelnuts, cherries ,and chocolate. Spoon the mixture over the cooled crust and chill for 2-3 hours before serving. You may add cherry pie filling or cherry preserve over the top if you desire.
