Warm, boozy cherries over ice cream is a classic dessert, and it's so easy to do. We like ours over chocolate ice cream (but when Bobby doesn't quite have the energy to make this, you know he's always got Cherry Garcia in the freezer).

Ingredients

Two 16-ounce cans whole cherries in juice, drained and juice reserved
1 tablespoon sugar

1/4 cup kirsch, Cognac, or freshly squeezed orange juice
1 quart chocolate ice cream

In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of the reserved cherry juice, the sugar, and cornstarch until the sugar and cornstarch dissolve.
Combine the remaining cherry juice and the cornstarch mixture in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cherries and kirsch and cook until the cherries are warmed through, about 2 minutes more.
Place 2 scoops of ice cream in each serving dish. Divide the warm cherry topping among the dishes and serve.

Tips:

Use fresh cherries for the best flavor. If using frozen cherries, thaw them completely before using.
Make sure the butter is cold before cutting it into the flour. This will help create a flaky crust.
Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the crust tough.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
When making the filling, be sure to cook the cherries until they are soft and syrupy. This will take about 10 minutes.
Add a splash of lemon juice to the filling for a bit of tartness.
Serve the cherry jubilee warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
