It is almost impossible to eat just one of these chocolate covered cherry candies that have combined two favorite flavors into one delicious treat. The candy often is made with a sweet liquid center and in some cases has a liquor filling center.
Known to many as a mid-winter pick-me-up, chocolate covered cherries, also called chocolate cordials, can be either store-bought or homemade. Here is a recipe for homemade chocolate covered cherries.
 Ingredients
- 60 maraschino cherries with stems
- 3 tablespoons butter, softened
- 2 cups confectioners sugar
- 1 pound chocolate confectioners’ coating
Directions
1. Drain cherries and set on paper towels to dry
2. In a medium bowl, combine butter and corn syrup until smooth. Stir in confectioners’ sugar and knead to form a dough. Chill to stiffen if necessary. Wrap each in about 1 teaspoon of dough. Chill until form.
3. Melt confectioners’ coating in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Dip each cherry in by its stem, and place on waxed paper lined sheets. Chill until completely set. Store in an airtight container in a cool place. Best after 1 or 2 weeks.
