chocolate cherry cafe glace

Desciption

the hole-in-the-wall coffee place near my childhood home of n'awlins used to serve cafe glace, which is essentially just a big cup of hot, sweetened coffee, with a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream in it. and it's indescribably wonderful. but you just can't have that kind of sugar load every day. if you keep the cherry puree premade, you can have this one every morning. made, but not submitted, for rsc 12.

Steps

Pit the cherries
And place in the blender with splenda
And a little water or juice as needed
Puree smooth
You may need more or less splenda
Depending on the sweetness of your cherries
This will keep tightly lidded for several days
Mix coffee
Chocolate syrup
And 1 to 2 tbsp of cherry puree in a big
Wide mug
Top with a the ice cream
And give it a few moments to start to melt before drinking
Enjoy !
