Tips:
- Use fresh cherries: Fresh cherries have a sweeter and more intense flavor than frozen or canned cherries. If you can't find fresh cherries, frozen cherries can be used as a substitute.
- Pit the cherries: Before using the cherries, you need to pit them. You can use a cherry pitter to make this task easier.
- Use a variety of nuts: The recipe calls for chopped walnuts, but you can use other nuts, such as almonds, pecans, or hazelnuts.
- Don't overcook the cherries: The cherries should be cooked just until they are softened. If you overcook them, they will lose their flavor and texture.
- Chill the dessert before serving: The dessert should be chilled for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.

Freda's Cherry Delight is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet cherries, crunchy nuts, and creamy whipped cream is sure to please everyone. This dessert can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy hosts and hostesses.
