This cake turns out great. We baked this to use as our wedding cake. We did quarter the cherries instead of halving them though.

I have had this cake just about every Christmas for the last 25 years, while growing up and have made it myself for the last 10. It is excellent.

It was okay. A bit dry even though I followed other users suggested and added some water. Needs to be tinkered with but could be an awesome recipe.
