Comments:
Dipping sweet fresh cherries in luscious chocolate is a lovely idea for a special occasion such as Valentines Day or serving as an after-dinner goodie when you are having a more elegant dinner party. They may also be served as a "sweet" apetizer when you are giving a cocktail party.

Ingredients:
6 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened), semisweet or white chocolate, chopped
24 large fresh cherries with stems

Instructions:
Line baking sheet with waxed paper. Place chocolate in top of double boiler set over barely simmering water (do not allow bottom of pan to touch water); stir until melted and smooth. Remove chocolate from over water. Holding cherry stem, dip 1 cherry halfway into chocolate. Place cherry, chocolate side down, on prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining cherries and chocolate. Chill until chocolate is firm, at least 15 minutes. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.)

Makes 24 chocolate dipped cherries.

This is the best for little parties, for fruit, and also my daughter loves chocolate but hates fruit. This was a perfect way of getting her to eat fruit and all her friends love it too.
