Cherries Jubilee Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cherries

    In a medium saucepan, combine the pitted cherries and sugar. Cook over medium heat until the cherries have softened and released their juices, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Butter and Flavor

    Stir in the butter and vanilla extract, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the butter has melted and the mixture is well combined.

  3. 3

    Flambé the Cherries

    Carefully add the kirsch to the saucepan. Allow it to heat for about 30 seconds, then ignite the alcohol with a long lighter or match to flambé. Let the flames subside as the alcohol burns off, about 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Scoop the ice cream into serving bowls and top with the cherry mixture. Serve immediately while the cherries are still warm.
