Steps:

• Prepare cooked Dressing:.
• Heat first 6 ingredients just to boiling in 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly.
• Let it cool while you beat the whipping cream.
• Beat whipping cream in chilled medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until it's stiff.
• Fold a spoonful of the cooled egg mixture into into the whipped cream.
• Fold the rest of the cooled egg mixture into the whipped cream.
• If you add the hot egg mixture all at once into the whipped cream, it will curdle; trust me on this.
• Add fruit& nuts to the dressing.
• Refrigerate at least 12 hours to blend flavors.
• Garnish with Maraschino cherries.
• Garnish with nuts if you choose to use the nuts as a garnish rather than an ingredient, or both as I do.
