This is a delicious dessert - I usually make it with fresh cherries, but canned work just as well. You might want to adjust the sugar amount though, as canned cherries are often sweeter.

I made the recipe as indicated but I used Premium pie filling. I also put in a pie crust as it was easy to present and cut portions both large and small Read More

This was really good and made in just a few mins! I only used one and a half cups of cherries and they were frozen cherries cut into fours. I also used Stevia instead of sugar. And then I drizzled just a tiny bit of chocolate syrup on top. Wow! Really good. Thank you for sharing :) Read More
