Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Grease the insides of two 7.5cm chefs' rings with butter and place on a lined baking sheet.

Process the butter, sugar, baking powder, cocoa, and flour in a food processor until combined.

Stir in eight pitted cherries using a wooden spoon.

Divide the mixture between the rings and bake for 10 to 12 minutes.

Heat cocoa powder, water, and sugar in a pan until smooth and glossy.

Transfer the fondants to plates and remove the rings.

Top with chocolate sauce, a tablespoon of cream, and two garnish cherries.
