Method

1. Blitz the oats, pitted dates, cocoa and almond butter to a sticky crumb and press it into a 7-inch (18 cm) tart pan. Chill 20 minutes.
2. Thaw the cherries and drain them hard on a cloth, then spread them over the base.
3. Blend the cottage cheese perfectly smooth, melt the chocolate over hot water off the heat and beat the two together with the vanilla. Pour the ganache over the cherries and chill 3 hours, until set firm.
