- Beat together butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.

Steps:
- Drain fruit and arrange in layers in a 2 qt. casserole. Cook sauce in double boiler until thick and smooth. Pour hot sauce over fruit cover and refrigerate overnight or several days. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
Tips:
- Use a variety of fruits. This will give your dish a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include apples, pears, peaches, apricots, and plums.
- Choose fruits that are ripe but not too soft. This will help them hold their shape during baking.
- Peel and core the fruits before baking. This will help the sherry and sugar penetrate the fruit more easily.
- Use a good quality sherry. A dry or medium-dry sherry is best. Avoid using a sweet sherry, as it will make the dish too sweet.
- Don't overcook the fruits. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
- Serve the fruits warm or at room temperature. They can be served on their own or with ice cream, whipped cream, or yogurt.
