- Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 8 oz. top-quality vanilla ice cream
- 1/2 C. toasted chopped pecans
Directions
Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the sugar, stir, and then add the cherries and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cherries are tender and hot through, about 3-5 minutes.
