One, 9-1/2-inch tart-shaped sponge cake or 8 individual sponge cakes or shortcakes
1/2 cup cherry or orange juice*
2 ounces frozen whipped dessert topping, thawed (1/2 of a 4-ounce container)
2/3 cup cherry-vanilla or desired flavor yogurt (6-ounce carton)
2 cups fresh light or dark sweet cherries, such as Rainer or Bing

Directions:
Place cake(s) on a serving platter; sprinkle with juice. Set aside.
In a small mixing bowl stir together whipped topping and yogurt; spread onto cake(s). Cover and chill for up to two hours.
Before serving, remove stems from cherries; halve and remove pits. Arrange cherries, cut side down, on top of the yogurt mixture.
Make-Ahead Tip: Spread yogurt mixture over cake. Cover and chill for up to 2 hours. Add cherries before serving.
*Note: If you wish to put some sherry in a cherry dessert, substitute 2 to 4 tablespoons of cream sherry for an equal amount of the fruit juice.
