Spoon a little of the sauce into the bottom of your serving dish. Top with 1 or 2 small scoops of ice cream. Add a few blueberries, cherries, and white chocolate chips. Add another scoop of ice cream, more raspberry sauce, blueberries, cherries, and white chocolate chips. Finish with a dollop of whipped cream and a maraschino cherry (or another fresh cherry) on top.

MAKE AHEAD TIPS: You can prepare the fruits ahead of time and hold them separately, covered, in the refrigerator. You can scoop the ice cream into balls and freeze them on a parchment-covered baking sheet to make assembly fast and easy.
