Microwave Cherries Jubilee Recipe


On occasion, when I don't feel like reporting anything, I may post a recipe. Most of my recipes are easy, and all of them are Weight Watchers friendly.

Cherries Jubilee
  • 1 1lb bag frozen, dark, sweet cherries (OR blueberries, peaches, etc.)
  • 3 Tbs. Gran Marnier (OR Chambord)
  • 1 tsp. granulated sugar
  • 2-3 tsp. cornstarch (depending on whether you want a sauce or a pie-filling consistency)
Mix together in a large glass bowl. Microwave on high 2 minutes, stir, then 2 minutes, stir. Microwave 1 minute, stir. Repeat at 30 second to 1 minute intervals until thickened and clear.
Makes 3 servings at 2 Weight Watchers points per serving.

Serve over ice cream - Bryers No Sugar Added Vanilla (adds 1 point per serving), Breyers Light Natural Vanilla (adds 2 points), or whatever ice cream you prefer. These sauces, with or without the liquer, are also good on Belgian Waffles, either homemade or Van's toaster waffles, or cheese blintzes. They can also be served in individual ramekins with a crumble of graham cracker on top, or over crepes (homemade or purchased in the produce section of the grocery store) filled with vanilla yogurt.
