Cook Time:
2 minutes
Servings:
24 cherries
Ingredients
  • 24 fresh cherries
  • 4 ounces dark chocolate, broken into small pieces
  • ΒΌ cup chopped hazelnuts
Directions
  1. Wash and fully dry the cherries.
  2. Place the cherries in the freezer for 15 minutes (this will help the chocolate set more quickly).
  3. Melt the chocolate in the microwave on a low setting in small increments, stirring every 20 to 30 seconds until smooth.
  4. Dip the chilled cherries into the melted chocolate, gently swirling them to get full coverage.
  5. Quickly dip the chocolate-coated cherries into the chopped hazelnuts, dipping them so that the nut layer reaches about halfway up the cherry.
  6. Place the completed cherries on a baking paper lined plate to set completely. Repeat the process with all the cherries.
  7. Serve the chocolate-covered cherries right away.
