SWEET CHERRY ICE-CREAM DESSERT SAUCE
Its a tedious job of quartering and pitting cherries,but well worth the stained fingers. Spooned lavishly over ice cream,layered in a parfait, or used to flavor a soda.A touch of almond enhances the sauce. Spoon over a white cake.You will find many uses,I am sure..Enjoy!!!

CHERRY DESSERT SAUCE
The original of this recipe was seen in the December 2009 Best of Cooking Light, Holidays, where it was included with a recipe for steamed chocolate pudding. However, since I only wanted the sauce recipe . . . One serving is figured at 2 tablespoons.

Steps:
- In a blender or food processor, combine cherries & orange Juice, then cover & process until smooth.
- If it's necessary for the sauce to be REALLY smooth, strain the cherry mixture in a sieve over a bowl, then discard the pulp. (I usually don't do this step, however,).
- In a saucepan, combine 1/2 cup water, sugar & brandy (if using). Place over medium-high heat & cook until sugar dissolves, stirring constantly.
- Add the cherry mixture to the sugar water & stir well, then bring it to a boil, reduce heat & simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a small container, dissolve cornstarch in 1 tablespoon of water, then stir it into the cherry mixture, bring to a boil & cook another minute or until slightly thick.
- Serve warm over pudding, pound cake, ice cream, whatever.
