CHOCOLATE-COVERED CHERRIES
Not only is this my family's favorite festive dessert, but it makes a delicious holiday present, too. Best of all, you can (and should) prepare these ahead. The candy gets better as it's stored, with the centers becoming even juicier. -Linda Hammerich, Bonanza, Oregon

EASY CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRIES
I've been making this recipe for many years. I'm not sure where it originally came from. The recipe is somewhat time consuming, but well worth it. I usually make two batches because one just isn't enough. This candy is easy to make and it also makes a great gift.

SUPER EASY CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRIES
My friend makes these and they are good as long as you leave them sit a few days, up to a week (juicier). I have never made these myself, so I'm only posting her instructions... This is a quick and easy treat to make anytime of the year... but the holidays are the best time to make them! What friend, relative, neighbor or acquaintance wouldn't love to receive these on an assorted dessert platter?! So simple and very little clean-up involved. This originally came from Country Woman magazine, 1995. Enjoy! *NOTE: Cook time is actually the refrigeration time.

Steps:
- In a small bowl combine confectioners sugar, softened butter, milk and extract. Kneed until you form a pliable "gooey dough". Roll into 3/4"-1" balls, then smash flat to make a 2" circle.
- Line a baking sheet with wax paper. IMPORTANT: Be sure that each cherry is completely patted dry. Place 1 cherry in the center of each circle. Carefully enclose the cherry with the circle of "gooey dough" (leave the stem exposed), and place them stem side up on the baking pan. Loosely cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Place chocolate chips and shortening into a microwave safe bowl. Heat for 30 seconds, stir, heat 30 seconds, stir, etc -- until melted and stir again. Let sit 1 minute.
- Hold the cherries by the stem and dip into chocolate, covering every bit of cherry (so no liquid will drain out once set). Allow excess chocolate to drain off and return each to the wax paper lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate baking sheet immediately just until chocolate has hardened, then transfer to room temp sealed container. Best served AFTER ONE WEEK for juiciest cherries. Keeps up to 6 weeks in a sealed container.
- Enjoy!

- In a large bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, butter, condensed milk and vanilla extract. Using your hands, knead until it forms a thick paste. Refrigerate for an hour, or until firm and cold.
- Make sure the cherries are well drained and pat them dry. Line a large baking sheet with parchment or wax paper. Set aside.
- When the mixture is firm, scoop out about 2 teaspoons and form it around each cherry, placing them on the prepared baking sheet. I find that rolling the mixture into a ball and then flattening it into a disk is the easiest way to cover the cherry.
