Best Cherry Pretzel Almond Bark Recipes
CHERRY ALMOND PRESERVES
This recipe came from my mother-in-law. It's very old-fashioned-in fact, the friend who gave it to her used to cook it up on an old wood stove. With all the cherry orchards here in Bitterroot Valley, I make two batches of these preserves each summer. (I get the cherries from a nearby cannery by the gallons!) My family likes them on fresh bread, muffins, pancakes and even ice cream-the consistency's similar to a topping. I have to be careful, though, and ration the jars out or they'd be the first thing to disappear from the root cellar! Both my husband and I serve as 4-H leaders. We have three children-girls 16 and 14 and a son who's 12.
