Dissolve gelatin in cold water. Add boiling water & cool. Season with bourbon. Add sugar & set aside. Tear off some of inside of cake & put a little of it in the bottom of cake. Combine marshmallows, cherries, macaroons & whipped cream. Add to gelatin mixture & refrigerate until it begins to thicken. Fill cake with this mixture & refrigerate. Ice with whipped cream before serving. (This sounds like a lot of trouble, but make a day ahead. Very good & a pretty dessert to serve from table or buffet style. An angel food cake mix makes a large & pretty cake. At Christmas time use red or green cherries.) MARY VIRGINIA WOOD
