Servings: 2 quarts ice cream or 3/4 cups cherry sauce
Author: Shawn

Ingredients

  • 1 batch Triple Vanilla Ice Cream freshly churned (see note)
  • 1 1/2 cups pitted fresh cherries
  • 2 Tbs sugar
  • 1 tsp water
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Place cherries, sugar, water, cinnamon, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring often, until cherries release juice and seem to be swimming in cherry syrup.
  • Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
  • Place cherries in a non-reactive container, cover, and refrigerate until completely chilled, preferably overnight.
  • After churning the ice cream, fold in cherries. Pack and freeze ice cream as usual.
