Unfortunately once the detail has been lost in the blown high lights you can't get them back , as stated with an image like this you really need to bracket the exposure and combine the images for best results because even the most expensive camera can't capture a wide enough dynamic range in one shot .
Most of today's image editing software has some kind of shadow and high light adjustment which might help , what software do you use .
