CHOCOLATE-COVERED CHERRIES
Not only is this my family's favorite festive dessert, but it makes a delicious holiday present, too. Best of all, you can (and should) prepare these ahead. The candy gets better as it's stored, with the centers becoming even juicier. -Linda Hammerich, Bonanza, Oregon

EASY CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRIES
I've been making this recipe for many years. I'm not sure where it originally came from. The recipe is somewhat time consuming, but well worth it. I usually make two batches because one just isn't enough. This candy is easy to make and it also makes a great gift.

CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRIES - SIMPLE STYLE
These Cherries are great. They are made with Marshmallow creme instead of condensed milk. They are very easy to make - especially if you've never tried to make them before! My mother in law passed the recipe on to me and they are very rich - but very good! A perfect valentines day treat.
