Peaches and Blackberries in Brandied Blackberry Sauce image

Sometimes the idea is not to be original or creative in the kitchen, but merely to be expedient and to satisfy. The fresh produce of summer makes this easier. Here, peaches and blackberries - the freshest to be found - soak in an easy, no-cook brandy sauce until you're ready to eat them. Top with creme fraiche, or not. Either way, the "black honey of summer," as Mary Oliver wrote, is yours.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out to be more like a syrup. It was still tasty, but it wasn't the consistency I was expecting.

This recipe is a great way to use up ripe peaches and blackberries. The sauce is also very versatile. I served it over ice cream, but it would also be good on pancakes or waffles.

I love the combination of peaches and blackberries in this recipe. The sauce is also very good, but I found it to be a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll try reducing the amount of sugar.

I've never been a big fan of brandied sauces, but this one was surprisingly good. The brandy added a nice depth of flavor without being overpowering.
