Categories     candy

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup chocolate candy melts (milk or semi-sweet (You can also use chocolate chips with 1/2 teaspoon of shortening or coconut oil))
20 Maraschino cherries (WITH stems (these are a little hard to find, but they are a must!))
20 Hershey's chocolate kisses
40 Unsalted peanut halves
20 Red-hots
White decorating frosting (I usually just buy a small squeeze tube from the grocery store cake aisle. )

Steps:

  • In the microwave or over the stove, melt the chocolate. Stir until smooth.
  • Holding a cherry by its stem, dip it into the chocolate. Place on a baking sheet covered with wax paper.
  • Press a chocolate kiss to the front of the cherry. The wet chocolate will hold them together. Wedge peanut halves between the cherry and chocolate kiss to make the ears.
  • Add a couple dots of white frosting for eyes, then put a little melted chocolate on a red-hot and place on the end of the kiss to make the nose.

Time 35m

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 ounce) jar maraschino cherries, with stems drained and dried (see Notes)
6 ounces semisweet chocolate
1/2 teaspoon butter
1 ounce paraffin wax, chopped (see Notes)
1/2 cup chocolate chips (see Notes)

  • Line a cookie sheet with waxed or parchment paper.
  • Rinse the maraschino cherries, drain thoroughly, and let dry on paper towels, turning often.
  • The cherries must be completely dry or the chocolate will seize and get crumbly.
  • Gently melt chocolate, butter, and paraffin in a double boiler until smooth, stirring often to prevent burning.
  • Once melted, turn off heat, but leave in the double-boiler on the burner.
  • Dip dry cherries in melted chocolate to completely cover up to the stem.
  • Place on lined cookie sheet.
  • Immediately press on chocolate chip, flat side to the front of the dipped cherry, to form a head.
  • While chocolate is still warm, wedge two sliced almonds between chocolate chip and cherry to form ears. Let cool.
  • Use a toothpick to dab beady red eyes on either side of the chocolate chip with the red gel icing.
  • Refrigerate to firmly set chocolate.
  • Notes:.
  • If fresh sweet cherries are in season, by all means use them.
  • Paraffin is sold in the canning supplies section, usually under the brand Gulf Wax.
  • You can use the giant chocolate bars for the semisweet chocolate, or semisweet baking squares, or chocolate chips.
  • If your cherries are exceptionally large, you may wish to use chocolate kisses for the heads.
