Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cherries

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the pitted cherries and sugar. Cook for about 5 minutes until the cherries begin to release their juices.

  2. 2

    Add Butter and Flavor

    Stir in the butter and vanilla extract, and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.

  3. 3

    Flambé

    Remove the saucepan from heat and carefully add the kirsch. Return to the heat and ignite with a long lighter. Allow the flames to subside as the alcohol burns off.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Spoon the cherry mixture over two scoops of vanilla ice cream in serving bowls. Serve immediately.
