It’s time for another summer edition of CKNW’s Foodie Friday.
Each week, we’re joined by cookbook author and president and founder of The Gourmet Warehouse Caren McSherry with a recipe to help you up your game in the kitchen and wow your dinner party guests.
This week, we’re taking our cue from the weather, and offering up something cool, light, sweet — and making use of seasonal fruit: Cherry chocolate creamsicles.
And as an added bonus, it’s almost guilt free.
