Wash and drain cherries.

Remove stones and reserve 8 whole cherries for garnish.

Place cherries in a bowl; add kirsch.

In a small pan boil 3 tablespoons sugar and the water for a minute to make a thin sugar syrup.

Add syrup to cherries; stir to blend.

Cover and let soak for 20 minutes.

Cut the ladyfingers in half, divide into 4 portions, and place in individual glass dishes.

Arrange cherries on top.

Thoroughly blend cream cheese, 3 tablespoons sugar, vanilla extract, and ground almonds.

Whip the cream and carefully fold it into the cream-cheese mixture.

Spoon over the cherries.
