This was good. I chose to make this because it did not call for a box cake mix, and made a small pan. I used pineapple in juice (that I had used for something else) and the cherries. I cut 1/4 cup of sugar from the batter and added cherry syrup to make the 1/2 cup syrup. It was sweet enough for us. Thanks CM!
