You are right, perfect recipe for those who always wish for more cherries. The grand kids love it with peanutbutter and I like as is. We followed the recipe exactly and it turned out beautiful and great tasting. We Thank You for the fun at PRMR 2013....Grpa -
Delicious tasting bread!!! Hubby took it to work and everyone loved it also. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out beautiful and great tasting. Made for Rookie Tag Game 2013. -
I did half the recipe cause I only got half a jar of maraschino cherries. But I used a large egg (hard to divide LOL). For half the recipe, it needed 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup of brown sugar but I used a little bit less of each. I reduced just a little bit for the milk because of the whole egg. I used sliced almonds. And I made this in 12 small muffin crown pans. I just bought it and it was my first time doing this. I love the taste and the texture is moist. Thanks Annacia.

Not only is this bread great tasting, it is beautiful. It is easy enough to make to have any time at home and it is also pretty enough to make a thoughtful hostess gift. I made it for Photo Tag, thanks for sharing. -
Amazing in very way - made as-is. Also froze a loaf in slices and one whole for future use - great taste, moist and yummy!
