Crockpot Monday: Cherries Jubilee

I absolutely adore cherries. I love them raw, I love them dried in things, I love them in pies...I love cherries. I especially love yummy, hot cherries on top of ice cream...

Ingredients:

2 Tablespoons butter, melted
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
2 (15-ounce) cans pitted black cherries in heavy syrup
2 Tablespoons white sugar
1/4 teaspoon lemon zest
1/4 cup brandy (optional)
vanilla ice cream

Directions: 

Use your 1.5 quart crockpot for this recipe.

Melt butter in the microwave, and whisk in cornstarch until it's completely dissolved. Drain cans of cherries, and add to crockpot. Pour in cornstarch mixture. Add sugar and lemon zest. No need to stir. If you're going to add the brandy, do so now.

Cook on high for 2 hours, and serve hot over vanilla ice cream.
