Balsamic Cherries & Peaches

July 14, 2020


Derived from: Food Network

That saying "eat dessert first," is completely acceptable with this recipe! Well, we think so anyway. The beauty of this simple dessert for us Michiganders is that both cherries and peaches are (mostly) in season, meaning they're just that much better and easier to find. Three cheers to Karen Koeppe, in-house food expert, for snagging and sharing this one with us!
