Cherries in Amaretto

YEA,  it's Champagne Saturday!!  While it is still sweet cherry season, buy a big bag and try this.  You will need to let these macerate in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks before using them.  Here is how to make these cherries and two easy ways to use them.

Thoroughly wash and dry cherries.  Pit and put in a container large enough to hold the cherries and then cover with Amaretto, and seal tightly.  Refrigerate for at least 2 weeks.

Use over ice cream as a delicious ADULT dessert or make a Cheery Cherry Crush

Cheery Cherry Crush

1 cup of Half & Half

2 ounces of Kahlua

2 ounces of Amaretto from cherries

¼ cup of soaked Cherries

½ cup of crushed Ice

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

Yummmy!

Enjoy!
