  Yummy! I was a bit skeptical about using icing sugar instead of caster sugar, thinking they were going to be a bit dry but I neednt have worried. I made these for a fundraiser on the coffee and cake stall. They looked very impressive and tempting. Needless to say they sold quickly and there were a lot of "mmmmm lovelies" as people tucked in. I will definitely make these again!

  Great recipe!!! Thank you! I used fresh cherries, and normal flour instead of cornflour.
