Steps:
- Remove maraschino cherries from the liquid, reserving liquid. Chop cherries finely.
- Place milk chocolate and dark chocolate into a medium to large sized heat safe bowl. Set aside.
- In a small sauce pan on stove top over medium heat, stir together heavy whipping cream, butter, corn syrup and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Once boiling, pour mixture over chocolate chips. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let sit for 5 minutes.
- Remove plastic wrap and whisk until smooth. Then stir chopped cherries into chocolate mixture.
- Place bowl in refrigerator for 15 minutes, then stir well. Place bowl back in refrigerator for another 15 minutes, then stir well.
- Again, place bowl back in refrigerator, but stir after 5 minutes. Repeat the cooling, then stirring, every 5 minutes until chocolate is firm enough to form into balls. This will take 10-15 minutes total.
- Once firm, form chocolate into about 1" round balls. Place on parchment paper or silicone mat. Put formed balls in refrigerator for at least 20 minutes (you may can keep the balls in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but if you do this put them in a container that seals, or cover them in plastic).
- On a working surface lay out a large piece of parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
- Place dark chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl. Heat on 50% power in 30 second increments, stirring after each increment, until chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Remove balls from refrigerator. Use a fork to roll balls, 1 or 2 at a time, through melted chocolate. Use fork to pick up coated balls so that excess chocolate drips off balls into bowl. Place coated balls on parchment paper or silicone mat. Once you have coated a few balls, dust cocoa powder lightly over truffles (you can do this with a mesh strainer or sifter).
- Place red candy wafers and cherry juice in a microwave safe bowl. Heat on 50% power in 30 second increments, stirring after each increment, until wafers are melted and smooth. Drizzle over truffles.
- Let truffles sit for 30-60 minutes before serving or storing.
CHOCOLATE CHERRY TRUFFLES
My cherry truffles were the delicious result of a kitchen experiment involving a bottle of kirsch I'd received as a gift and some dried cherries I had on hand. They won a blue ribbon at the Wisconsin State Fair! -Gerry Cofta, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Begin by making the chocolate-cherry ganache. First, place the chopped chocolate in a medium heat-safe bowl.
- Pour the cream in a small saucepan, and place it over medium heat. Heat the cream until small bubbles form along the sides of the pan, but don't allow it to come to a boil.
- Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 1 minute. Gently whisk the chocolate and cream until it is well-combined. Stir in the chopped cherries and the kirschwasser, if using.
- Press a layer of cling wrap on top of the chocolate, and allow it to come to room temperature. Place the truffle cream in the refrigerator to firm up for about 2 hours.
- Form the truffles. You can use a spoon to scoop 1-inch truffles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. Alternately, you can fill a piping bag (fitting with a ½-inch round tip) and pipe 1-inch mounds on a prepared baking sheet.
- Pour the cocoa powder on a sheet of waxed paper or parchment. Dust your hand with cocoa, and roll the truffle mounds into balls. Return to the refrigerator until firm, about 1 hour.
- Melt the chocolate candy coating in the microwave, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent overheating.
- Dip the formed truffles in the chocolate and return them to the baking sheet. While the chocolate is still wet, top each truffle with red sprinkles or a sliver of dried cherry, if using. If you want to get the red-topped effect in the photo, melt some red candy coating and place it in a paper cone or plastic bag with the corner cut off. Pipe a dot of red coating on top of each truffle and let dry.
- Chill the truffles in the refrigerator until they are completely set, for about 15 minutes. For the best taste and texture, serve Black Forest Truffles at room temperature, and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Steps:
- For the ganache: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium stainless steel or glass bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water and stir occasionally until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth, about 6 minutes. Whisk in the cinnamon. Refrigerate the ganache until very firm, about 2 hours. Using a 1-ounce cookie scoop or a round tablespoon measure, scoop the ganache into 18 (1-inch) round pieces and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Working quickly, with dry hands, roll the mixture into balls. Put a pop stick into each ball and freeze, stick side up, until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Add the 2 cups of chocolate chips to a medium stainless steel or glass bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water and stir occasionally until the chocolate has melted, about 4 minutes.
- Put the chopped nuts, mini-chocolate chips and chopped candy bars in 3 small bowls.
- Dip the pops in the melted chocolate, allowing the excess chocolate to drip off, and then dip into the toppings until coated. Arrange the pops, stick side up, on the baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes until the chocolate has set. Let the pops stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.
- Store the pops, refrigerated, in an airtight container.
- Cook's Note: If the scooped ganache is too sticky to roll into balls, put the pan in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes to harden.
