How to Make Chocolate Cherry Clusters

  1. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  2. Microwave on high for 1 minute.
  3. Stir the chocolate chips thoroughly.
  4. Microwave on high for another 30-60 seconds, or until the chocolate is almost completely melted.
  5. Stir until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted.
  6. Quickly stir in 3 cups of your favorite cereal (like Rice Krispies or Chex), 1 cup of dried cherries, and ½ cup of chopped walnuts until everything is evenly coated.
  7. Using a tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of the mixture onto a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the clusters are firm and no longer sticky.
