The cherries have it!
It’s cherry season – time to enjoy! How about some Ben and Jerry’s Cherry Garcia topped with Cherry Magic Shell? Or a refreshing Cherry Sprite or Cherry Coke? Maybe a Cherry Chocolate Frosty?

Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia

1/4 cup dark or milk chocolate, shaved
1/4 cup Bing cherries, fresh, halved and pitted (may use canned but drain syrup)
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups heavy or whipping cream
1 cup milk

Place shaved chocolate flakes and cherries in separate bowls. Cover and refrigerate.

Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more. Pour in the cream and milk and whisk to blend.

Transfer the mixture to the ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's instructions.

After the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before it is done), add the chocolate and cherries, then continue freezing until the ice cream is ready.




Cherry Magic Shell

4 ounces White chocolate
3 tablespoons grape seed oil
1/4 teaspoon cherry candy oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Place white chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Heat on half power for 1 minute. Stir. Heat for another minute, stir. If the chocolate isn't fully melted, heat for another minute.

Once chocolate is completely melted, add grape seed oil and whisk until smooth. Add cherry candy oil, vanilla extract and red food coloring. Whisk until the color is even. Store at room temperature and use within a month.
