*You may have noticed that this recipe calls for 1 cup halved cherries and 1/2 cup diced. Upon tested I found that folding 1 1/2 cups of halved cherries was hard to do, however, I still wanted as much cherry flavor as possible. Taking 1/2 cup of the cherries and dicing them allows them to be more easily incorporated. The entire 1 1/2 cups are all added at the same time, but the different sizes allow for better distribution.
