  1. Fantastic! The name says it all. Not being a coconut fan, I left it out and it lost nothing in the translation. Thank you Amber for sharing your orgasm with me! :)
     
  2. This stuff is soooo good! I've actually been making it for a few years so I'm sorry I forgot to rate it. Everyone who tries it absolutely loves it and can't get enough. The cherry flavor really does burst in your mouth and the texture differences are fantastic! It looks more time intensive than it is and it's totally worth the little bit of effort it takes. I just work on each "layer" during the bake times. It's also a beautiful dessert! I renamed it Cherry Delight since it was being requested so often. Thanks for an awesome dessert!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I live in Arizona. Cooking is a relaxing hobby and I love finding healthy meals that have a lot of flavor and heart to them. Recipezaar has not let me down. I could not possibly pick a favorite cookbook. I love searching used bookstores for old cookbooks. I collect other cookbooks that look intresting or have healthy dishes. My collection is modest, but I love it. Also, I love the Taste of Home magazines. They have real food that real people cook. I would have to say my pet peeves are people who drive while talking on cell phones and people who cannot spell potato. It is p o t a t o not p o t a t o e. There is no e unless you are spelling the plural form of potato which is potatoes. I frequently see that word mispelled in recipes and it makes me think the recipe is somehow devalued because of the spellings. The Zaar system of ratings works for me. I do try to explain myself in my reviews and welcome any questions or comments on what I have said. It is not my intention to be mean-spirited if I did not like something (it is rare for me not to like a recipe though):) Recipezaar brings such a nice element to my life and I feel it has been enriched by the wealth of knowledge both in everyone's contributed recipes and on the forums. Also, it is such a nice feature that you can log on practically any time to get help with a recipe or ingredient that might otherwise be imtimidating to prepare by yourself.</p>
