Adults will like these ice cream sundaes with cherries and kirschwasser, a cherry schnapps, but serve it without the liqueur for those who don't care for it. Make these sundaes small and you can serve them for dessert without going over the top.

Makes 4 small or 2 large ice cream sundaes.

  • 1 c. whipping cream
