SPICED CHERRY SAUCE

Spiced Cherry Sauce image

Here's a version of a recipe my mom used to make! Over the years I've cut back on the amount of spices but still enjoy the combination, whether over ice cream, pound cake, fruitcake, pancakes and even some meats! At times I've even jazzed it up a little with a bit of cherry flavoring, if you know what I mean!
