Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the chopped cherries and chocolate. Cover and freeze until needed.

Notes
Ensure all ingredients are at refrigerator temperature for better blending.
Using California cherries enhances the flavor but feel free to substitute with other varieties if needed.
The ice cream is best enjoyed fresh as it melts faster than commercial brands.
