Cut a piece of aluminum foil 0 inches in length; double over. Lightly coat foil with
½ teaspoon butter, reserve. Cut another piece of aluminum foil about  inches
long. Fold in half lengthwise, then fold in half again two more times to create a
strip about  inches in length and  inches wide to make a “cradle”; reserve. Cut a
piece of kitchen twine  inches in length.
Heat Kirsch until very warm, but not boiling. Add cherries and macerate for ½ hour.
Lightly coat the bottom and sides of a -quart soufflé dish with ½ tablespoon butter
and dust with cocoa. Set aside. Place unsweetened chocolate and semisweet chocolate
with remaining butter in a Cuisinart
® ¾-quart saucepan. Melt over low heat.
Mix flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. Beat eggs and sugar until
thick, using a Cuisinart
® Hand Mixer on medium high speed, about  minutes.
Reduce speed to low and mix in ¹∕³ of the flour mixture and ½ the milk, alternately,
ending with the flour. Gently incorporate cherries, Kirsch and hazelnuts.
Pour pudding into prepared soufflé dish. Cover with buttered foil. Secure with
twine. Set the dish in the center of the long strip of folded foil and bring up the
sides to meet, twisting them together to form a handle. Place the cooking rack in
the ceramic pot of the Cuisinart
® Slow Cooker. Pour hot water into the bottom of
the pot. Set covered dish on rack, using the foil cradle to help lift the dish and care-
fully lower the dish into the pot and place on the rack. Cover and press the
on/off button to turn the unit on. Set time to ½ hours and press High; slow
cooker will automatically switch to Warm when cooking time has elapsed. Care-
fully remove the soufflé dish from the slow cooker using the foil strips to lift it.
