How to make
For this recipe you're going to need giant conchiglioni. Conchiglioni are a shell-shaped pasta, sold in larger supermarkets.
Boil the pasta according to package directions. Don't boil them fully, you can leave them slightly undercooked because they're going to undergo further heat treatment.
Pick out sweet cherries. Wash and clean them. Carefully remove the pit from each cherry.
Strain the ready conchiglioni and leave them to cool a little.
Smear a suitable oven dish with butter that can fit all of the conchiglioni.
In a bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar, add the milk and vanilla. Stir until homogeneous.
Put the conchiglioni in the oven dish, put 2 cherries in each shell. Pour the egg mixture on top, over all of them. Make sure to fill each shell with the mixture.
Put the oven dish in a 360°F (180 °C) oven and bake the pasta until it turns golden and gains a solid texture.
Cool and serve cold.
