February is National Cherry Month

Enjoy those chocolate covered cherries this Valentine's Day! February is National Cherry Month, and there are tons of great dessert ideas using the sweet red fruit. My favorite recipe is my easy cherry sauce because you can use fresh or frozen cherries, depending on what is in season.

Cherries are also a great mix-in for ice cream. Or, you can replace the strawberries in my no-cook strawberry ice cream recipe with cherries, for a cherry ice cream with tons of flavor.
