This Chocolate Covered Cherries Recipe is a must try! Chocolate covered cherries are my hubby’s favorite winter candy. Years ago I made him homemade chocolate covered cherries as a surprise during the holiday season. They turned out so well that he hates to buy pre-packaged chocolate covered cherries. He now begs! Yes… he BEGS me to make him homemade chocolate covered cherries. Last week I decided to make him up a big batch to enjoy over the next few weeks.
