Cherries, Amaretto Sour Cream and Brown Sugar

Submitted by Mrs Goodall

"I was about to make Sheri D's Amaretto Sourcream Strawberries #161835, when my mom stopped by with 3 pounds of fresh Bing Cherries from Eastern Washington. She makes the 5 hour drive annually in July just to get fresh cherries and stock up on wine for the year! She saw what I was making and suggested the following recipes for the cherries. I don't care for the taste of powdered sugar, and I don't think the recipe needs it, so I don't use it, but you decide. These are so simple, elegant (except for spitting out the pits) and yummy! Enjoy!!"

So simple and so good! I skipped the powdered sugar and used low fat sour cream--Delicious, summery tasting little dessert. Thanks, Mrs. G!
