Spoon this over melted Camembert cheese or over ice cream for a decadent dessert. – Heather Howe
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup dark or amber rum
- 1/2 cup quartered dried sour cherries
- 1 cup walnut halves
- 3/4 cup medium maple syrup
- 1/4 cup corn syrup
- 1/4 cup water
- 3/4 tsp cider vinegar
Preparation
In large glass measuring cup, microwave rum at high for 30 seconds or until hot. Add cherries; let stand until plump, about 1 hour.
Meanwhile, quarter each walnut. Toast on rimmed baking sheet in 350°F (180°C) oven until golden and fragrant, about 6 minutes. Let cool.
In saucepan, bring maple syrup, corn syrup and water to boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat and boil gently until syrupy, about 7 minutes. Add cherry mixture; simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add walnuts and vinegar; let cool.
Spoon into decorative jars. Seal and refrigerate for up to 1 month. Warm to spreading consistency if necessary before serving.
