If you need a simple yet gourmet dessert for your next gathering, you're in the right place. If you're not in the right place, then you probably took a wrong turn at Albuquerque.

This sweet cherry jubilee flambé recipe mixes juicy Harry & David cherries with currant jelly and lemon, before it's topped with brandy and lit on fire. Desserts for a crowd don't often wow like this one does. It's a sensational treat everyone will enjoy.
