3 tbsp. cherry brandy
6 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. water
12 lady's fingers (grapes)

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Wash and drain cherries. Remove stones and reserve 8 whole cherries for decoration. Place cherries in a bowl, add cherry brandy. In a small pan boil 3 tbsp. sugar and the water for a minute to make a thin sugar syrup. Add syrup to the cherries and stir to blend. Cover and let soak for 20 minutes. Cut the grapes in halves, divide into 4 portions, and place in individual glass dishes. Arrange cherries on top. Thoroughly blend cream cheese, 3 tbsp. sugar, vanilla extract, and ground almonds. Whip the cream and carefully add it into the cream cheese mixture. Spoon over the cherries. Decorate with the chopped nuts and whole cherries.
