Notes: Please note that the photo is of 1/2 the recipe. I made just half the recipe for because I did not have a punch bowl and we have a small family. It will make twice as much as shown.
Lightened up version: To lighten it up you can use sugar free cake mix, sugar free pudding mix, light cool whip and fresh cherries
