Method ⏲️

Chocolate-covered cherries never looked this good. Dip, drizzle, sprinkle - a few simple steps and you’ve got little festive bites everyone will love.

Step 1: Prepare Your Cherries

Line a tray with baking paper. Rinse and dry 1 punnet of cherries well (any moisture will stop the chocolate from setting).

Step 2: Melt Your Chocolate

Break up 1 cup of dark chocolate into small pieces and melt in the microwave (15-20 second bursts, stirring between each).

Step 3: Dip Your Cherries

Dip each cherry in the melted dark chocolate, swirling to coat.

Step 4: Let Them Set!

Place on the tray to set, adding desiccated coconut while the dark chocolate is still soft. Chill for 15–20 minutes until set.
