Brandied Cherries

Cut away with scissors half (only) the stems of five pounds sound, fresh, sweet cherries, place in a glass jar, fill up with cognac, tightly cork and put away to infuse for three weeks. Add a pound powdered sugar to every quart of brandy, cork jar, briskly shake, then after two months' infusion cherries will be ready to eat.
