SUMMER CHERRIES JUBILEE
This is my favorite dessert to make at home. It's easy, and the end result is rather impressive. The key to a successful flambe is to be sure the brandy is heated over low heat. That way, it slowly reaches the appropriate temperature but retains it's alcohol content, which is important for it to ignite. For this recipe, canned Cherry Pie Filling is not a suitable substitute for canned cherries. [A little history of this dessert dish....It was well known that cherries was Queen Victoria's favorite fruit, and legendary French chef Auguste Escoffier created this impressive dish to honor Queen Victoria on the occasion of either her Golden Jubilee in1887 or her Diamond Jubilee in 1897.] This is a simplified version of this scrumptious dessert that can easily be made at home.

CHERRIES JUBILEE FOR A HEALTHY HEART
A sweet ending that won't break the diet. Don't omit the grated orange rind; it made all the difference. This is from the 1975 edition of The American Heart Association Cookbook. ETA: I believe this recipe refers to canned cherries, hence the mention of using the juice. On the origin of this dish, many credit Escoffier (French) for creating this for Queen Victoria's Jubilee (British), and cherry compote had been a classic British dish prior to that...

BERRIES JUBILEE
This is a berry version of the famous flaming cherries jubilee. Skip the alcohol and flaming step if you prefer; no additional liquid needs to be substituted for the brandy. From Kathleen Desmond Stang and Melissa Monosoff Cooking Light, JUNE 2000. I tried it with Jacques Cardin, which is 80 proof, and didn't get a very dramatic flame. Still, it was worth it, this sauce is exquisite!

Tips:
- Use fresh cherries for the best flavor. Frozen cherries can also be used, but they should be thawed and drained before using.
- If you don't have kirsch, you can use another fruit liqueur, such as brandy, cognac, or Grand Marnier.
- Be careful not to overcook the cherries. They should be heated until they are just warmed through, but not mushy.
- Flambé the cherries in a large skillet or saucepan. This will help to prevent the alcohol from catching fire and burning the cherries.
- Serve the cherries jubilee immediately, while they are still warm. They can be served over ice cream, pound cake, or crepes.
Conclusion:
Cherries jubilee is a classic dessert that is sure to impress your guests. It is a simple recipe to make, but it is always a showstopper. The combination of sweet cherries, liqueur, and flames is irresistible. Cherries jubilee is the perfect dessert for any special occasion.
