TOTAL TIME: Prep: 10 min. Cook: 30 min. YIELD: 4 servings.
"Served warm or chilled, this thick fruit soup makes an interesting first course," writes Linda Murray, Allenstown, New Hampshire. "It is also a refreshing dessert with a dollop of ice cream."

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick (2 inches)
