Dark Chocolate Cherry Surprise
~ Dark Chocolate Cherry Surprise ~
1 1/2 Cups of 70% Dark Belgian Chocolate, chopped
1 1/2 Tablespoons of Organic Virgin Coconut Oil
1/2 Cup of Dried Cherries, chopped
1/2 Cup of Salted Gluten Free Pretzels, broken up into small pieces
1 Cup of Miniature Marshmallows
A Tiny Amount of Sea Salt
Melt the chocolate and coconut oil slowly in a double boiler or microwave. Add the cherries, pretzels, and marshmallows and stir. Spoon into miniature foil lined candy papers. Sprinkle the tiniest amount of sea salt on top of each one. Allow to set. If you want them to set quickly, allow them to rest in the refrigerator for a half an hour.

Have you ever tried freezing these? They look wonderful!

You could freeze them but the oils in the chocolate will separate causing a white film on top. It doesn’t change the flavor, just the appearance. 🙂

These look so lovely April and it’s always a thrill to see a delicious looking recipe that can be made in less than 30 minutes! I’ll try to make these this Christmas because like you say, they would make excellent gifts xx

These look so good, April, that I think the only real surprise is that as many as 8 of them lasted long enough for you to get a photo taken. These are the type of treat I always hope
to find at Christmas. 🙂

They were so smooth and delicious. I love the surprise crunch from the pretzels and the tart from the dried cherries. The marshmallows melt just slightly making them very light and fluffy. They didn’t last long!
