Note: This recipe appears on www.weightwatchers.com. Cooked fruit is now a guilty pleasure of mine and it tastes so good. If you enjoy apple pie a la mode, you'll love this dessert. There's nothing like fruit that's been marinated, spiced up, cooked and served over ice cream. You can use star anise, ground nutmeg or ginger on this or change the flavor of the ice cream and your dessert will still be delicious. The same could be said of the fruit and marmalade as well. I highly recommend serving this dessert at your next dinner gathering because it's a beautiful dessert with a nice ending.
