Recipe(tried): Easy Cherry Dumplings

Desserts - Fruit
My Mother used to make this for my brother and I when we were kids. She had the habit, (which I inherited), of writing notes on recipes with the date, on this recipe she wrote, "Good, but not enough liquid and fruit in half batch, 3/5/67". After that, she would always add some orange juice to the fruit syrup when making either a half batch or a whole batch. She used whatever fruit she had on hand, sometimes reducing the amount of sugar in the first step depending on the sweetness of the fruit. I remember cherry and blueberry dumplings the most.
