Como fazer My Famous Chocolate Covered Cherries
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until completely smooth and creamy. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- Meanwhile, drain 24-72 maraschino cherries and pat them dry with paper towels. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 1 hour.
- Once the chocolate mixture is firm, scoop out approximately 1-2 teaspoons (adjust to your preference) of the filling. Gently roll into a ball around each frozen cherry.
- Place the formed cherries on a wax paper-lined baking sheet and freeze for another hour.
- Melt 12 ounces of your favorite dipping chocolate according to package directions. Dip each frozen cherry into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Place them back on the wax-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate until the chocolate is completely set and firm.
- Carefully remove the chocolate-covered cherries from the baking sheet. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 1 month. Enjoy!
- *Optional: For a runnier filling, reduce the powdered sugar to 2 tablespoons. For a firmer filling add up to 1 cup powdered sugar.
