Combine sugar and water in small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 5 min. Stir in 2 T. cherry liqueur and cool. Brush syrup on top of cake layers; let stand for 5 min. Beat whipping cream at medium speed until foamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Slowly add 1/4 c. cherry liqueur...gradually, while beating.

I had a little whipped cream left over, so I piped a few rosettes on top, placing a whole maraschino cherry in each. Store in fridge. ----- |
