Directions
Double Chocolate Covered Cherries, These candies are delectable. Covered first with chocolate and than white chocolate, they are truly decadent! If you’re really a chocolate fanatic like me, try using semisweet chocolate instead of white for the second coating., My kids needed a project during summer vacation. This was one recipe I choose. It was fun and easy for them. The results were delicious. However, here in the west it was very warm and used shortening with my chocolate. I wish I had had some paraffin on hand it is packed away, from moving a couple of months ago and I have not got to those boxes yet because I think the chocolate would have set up better. We kept them in the fridge and they were awesome. Thanks!, Loved this! I made them along with other candies to pass out to neighbors and teachers. Everyone commented on how much they loved these! used a pp idea to make them into mice w/ the addition of slivered almond ears and Hershey kiss noses. This candy will hold a permanent place on my holiday candy tray! Thanks Karen=^..^= !
