When this roasted cherry sauce recipe came my way, I couldn’t resist posting it. It would be an amazing topping for dairy-free ice cream, store-bought or homemade. I’m planning a sundae bar with this super-easy sauce and the Purely Vanilla Ice Cream, Chocolate Puddin’ Pop Ice Cream, and Hot Fudge Sauce from my guide and cookbook, the 2nd Edition of Go Dairy Free.

Can you use parchment paper instead.? I won’t use tin foil because of da aluminum.
Parchment paper tends to soak up liquid more. I would instead combine it all in a greased baking dish (glass or porcelain).
