Sweet Cherry Ice-Cream Dessert Sauce

Its a tedious job of quartering and pitting cherries,but well worth the stained fingers. Spooned lavishly over ice cream,layered in a parfait, or used to flavor a soda.A touch of almond enhances the sauce. Spoon over a white cake.You will find many uses,I am sure..Enjoy!!!
