Heavenly Cherry Berries on a Cloud image

An elegant but fairly simple dessert. I got the recipe from an elderly lady at a potluck dinner at our church. She said it's always a big hit every time she makes it and once won 1st place in a local bake off. The prep time is at least 16 hours, so I usually make it a day ahead of when I am going to serve it.
