Ingredients
    4 1/2 tbsp butter, softened
    1 1/3 cup all purpose flour
    1/3 cup sugar
    2 cups 2% milk
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    1 None egg
    2 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
    1 lb cherries, pitted
Preparation
    In a bowl, mix together the butter, flour, 2 tbsp of sugar, a pinch of salt and 1-2 tbsp cold water. Knead into a smooth dough, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
    Heat oven to 400\u00b0F. In a saucepan, mix together the milk, vanilla extract, egg, cornstarch and 2 tbsp of sugar. Simmer and stir over a low heat for about 1 minute and set aside.
    Roll the dough out on a floured surface to about 10 inch diameter and place in a greased 9 inch tart pan. Press into the corners, cut off the edges and prick the base several times with a fork.
    Add the milk mix into the tart base and scatter the cherries over the top. Bake on the bottom of the preheated oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
