Add the cherries and heat thoroughly. if it gets to thick, thin with a little more juice. Warm the cognac in a small sauce pan. You can light the cognac and pour over the cherries shaking the pan to keep the flame, or you can pour the warm cognac into the cherries and heat together and then light the pan.

Notes: Impressive if you can flame at the table just before service. To do that make sure the liquor is warm and you might want to add a high proof rum to get the quick light. Be careful as it will flame quick and end quick. don't forget to dim the lights so the guests can see the flames.
