Zubereitung von Cherry Ripe Bites
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup desiccated coconut, 1 cup chopped dried cherries, 1 teaspoon cherry essence, a few drops of red food coloring (optional), and 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Roll the mixture into heaped teaspoonfuls, forming small balls.
- Place the balls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 6 ounces of dark chocolate and 2 tablespoons of Copha (vegetable shortening) or vegetable oil together. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and melted.
- Before dipping, re-roll the chilled cherry balls gently to ensure a smooth surface.
- Dip each cherry ball into the melted chocolate mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Place them back on the baking paper-lined tray.
- Refrigerate for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is set. For an extra decadent layer, re-dip the bites after the first layer has set.
