2 1/2 cups fresh cherries, pitted (about 1 pound)
2/3 cup sugar, divided
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons water
1/3 cup orange marmalade, divided
2 tablespoons butter or margarine

Directions:
Stir together first 4 ingredients. Press into bottom and up sides of a 13- x 4-inch tart pan with removable bottom.
Bake at 375° for 6 minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack.
Bring cherries, 1/3 cup sugar, cornstarch, and 3 tablespoons water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly; boil, stirring constantly, 1 minute or until thickened and bubbly.
