I was so excited when mystery author Michael Allan Mallory wrote me to say he wanted to do Cherries Jubilee for our Warm Up with Flaming Food celebration this month. I assured him that my vintage version on 1/1 was nothing anyone would actually want to make and eat...This, however, looks fantastic. -AA
Cherries Jubilee

Ingredients:
½ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons corn starch
¼ cup water
¼ cup orange juice
1 pound of fresh or frozen pitted Bing cherries.
¼ teaspoon cherry or cranberry extract
¼ cup brandy
Vanilla ice cream.

Turn off heat and add the cherry or cranberry extract. Now pour in the brandy and ignite with a long match or lighter. Gently shake the pan until the blue flame goes out. Spoon the cherries over the ice cream.
Michael Allan Mallory is the co-author of the just released Killer Instinct, which continues the adventures of mystery’s first zoologist sleuth: Lavender “Snake” Jones. Michael volunteered at the International Wolf Center in Ely, Minnesota, as part of his research for this book, which features wild wolves and a murder investigation in Superior National Forest. Zookeeper Snake Jones made her debut in Death Roll. Michael’s short stories have appeared in several mystery anthologies, including the forthcoming Deadly Treats, Anne Frasier’s invitation only collection coming this Halloween. http://www.snakejones.com/

I tried the last recipe and I loved it. Now, since we all loved it, I’m going to try this one out, too. Thank you for improving your recipes.
