Was this review helpful? Yes FlagI made these (photo posted) yesterday and they are so delicious!! I find almond goes lovely with cherry so added 1/4 tsp almond extract to the filling as well as 1/4 tsp almond extract and a 1/4 tsp vanilla to the frostiing. Also chopped up about 10 cherries and added to the frosting for extra cherry-ness :)
