Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"This is so good, and so easy to make, very colourful for a holiday season dessert. You can substitute raspberries, blueberries or strawberries if desired, any one will still be great, I usually make two of these, if I have more than four people over for dinner...a wonderful dessert."

I used frozen cherries since I didn't have any berries, and I cut the 3/4 cup sugar to 1/2 a cup. This recipe was easy and quick.
