A co-worker of mine makes this every year for the Christmas potluck lunch. It's her trademark. She was kind enough to share the recipe with me, and I made it for our family Christmas brunch to rave reviews.

That sounds delicious! Do you think you could use frozen cherries? What would you have to add to replace the lost syrup?
