Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a small skillet over medium heat, add the 8 frozen meatballs and 3 tbsp ketchup. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the meatballs are heated through and the ketchup forms a glossy glaze, about 8 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Scoop 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream into a bowl or plate.

  3. Step 3

    Spoon the hot glazed meatballs and any extra ketchup sauce over the ice cream.

  4. Step 4

    Top with the 4 cherries and serve immediately, while the meatballs are warm and the ice cream is cold.
