It’s that time of year again, that special day to show our loved ones how special they are once again.

I try to change it up each year.

What you’ll need to make these dark chocolate cherry truffles…

Ingredients:

  • 10 ounce bag dark chocolate chips, I used Ghirardelli 60% Cacao

  1. Have small molds if using cleaned and ready or a large cookie sheet covered with parchment paper or wax paper ready to go.
  2. Melt 6 ounces of the chocolate either in the microwave or over a double boiler as directed on package along with the small amount of oil.
  3. When completely melted, add the rest of the chocolate and mix until the rest is melted and chocolate is smooth and shiny.
  4. Pour a small amount of chocolate in each mold or on parchment then place a dried cherry on top. Dollop more chocolate to completely cover the cherry.
