Cherry Sherbet

lyoung04's Note:

I got the basic recipe off the internet but I do not remember where. I have found that many fruits will substitute readily into the recipe. The original recipe was for pineapple (which was great), but the cherry is even better. It also works well for peaches, strawberries and mangoes.
