This is a great recipe. It's actually from Ben & Jerry's "Homemade Ice Cream and Dessert Book". Make sure to cut the cherries in not too big pieces, otherwise you get big chunks of frozen fruit in your mouth (cold!). -
This was just OK for us. It didn't have as intense a bing cherry flavor as we anticipated. -
I made this for my dad for Father's Day and it went over with everyone so well. It tastes like the real thing!
