EASY CHERRY SAUCE

• Place over medium heat and whisk constantly until the mixture starts to thicken.
• Add cherries and cook stirring occasionally until sauce is at a light boil (about 6-10 minutes for fresh cherries and 12-15 minutes for frozen). The sauce should be thickened and uniformly bubbling, not just at the edges, then remove from heat.
