Great recipe! Me and my kids did this for snack and my kids asked for us to make some more! We used to have Cherries with Vanilla Ice-Cream which we found on GourmetRecipe.com but it's nice to try new things. I often check it out for recipes and cooking information including this website, KraftRecipes.com, BananaPedia.com, iBeefRecipes.com, and Gourmandia.de for different moods and occasions. Thanks for this appetizing recipe! By the way, here's the link to the mentioned recipe: www.gourmetrecipe.com/recipes/cherries-with-vanilla-ice-cream Gourmet-Pass.com and XDestination.com are also my favorites.
