Chocolate Covered Cherries
These aren’t hard to make, and definitely won’t break your piggy bank. Before I even thought about dipping the cherries, I wanted to get them dry. If your cherries are wet, it will change the texture of your chocolate. Once the texture is changed you cannot use the chocolate for dipping. So the first thing I did was pat the cherries down with a paper towel. Then I changed the paper towel, and let them sit while I melted the chocolate. Another thing I’m glad I did before was get my sheet pan ready. You don’t want to rush and get your baking sheet ready after you’ve melted your chocolate. You don't want your chocolate cooling while you're gathering items. You need your chocolate to stay nice and warm while you are dipping. A tip to keep your chocolate warm is rapping the bowl with a kitchen towel. You can also sit the bowl on a heating pad. Make sure the pad is on low heat. Also the chocolate won’t stick to parchment or wax paper. Which will make life a whole lot easier when the cherries are set. Then you can easily pick them up to store or eat!
