MASTER COOKBOOK RECIPE #368 CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRIES Ingredients: 20 maraschino cherries (stems on) 4 Tbsp salted butter 2 cups powdered sugar 1/4 tsp salt 3-4 Tbsp white corn syrup 10 oz. package of 100% chocolate chips (milk or dark) 1 Tbsp vegetable shortening Instructions: Drain cherries for 3 hours on a paper towel. Mix butter, sugar, salt, and 3 Tbsp of corn syrup until it is packed solid. If needed, add an additional Tbsp of corn syrup. Wrap each cherry with 1/2 tsp of the powdered sugar mixture, pressing it evenly to mold around the cherry. Place them in the refrigerator and chill for 3 hours before dipping. Chocolate: Microwave the chips for 2 minutes on high in a 1 cup liquid measuring cup. Stir well, add shortening, and keep heating until it is hot and thin. Dip each cherry into the chocolate to coat it. Make sure the chocolate seals around the stem. You may need to reheat the chocolate because chilled cherries will cool them quickly. Place the dipped cherries on parchment paper. Chill in the refrigerator until set, then place in a sealed container. Keep refrigerated until the day you serve them. When ready, remove and place on a serving platter. Enjoy it, they are delicious!
