I’m so thankful to God that I was able to make these chocolate covered cherries and that it went safely!! I found a recipe online that said to first coat frozen cherries with vanilla yogurt, then freeze for about 15 minutes. While waiting is when we mix chocolate chips (from @enjoylifefoods) with a little coconut oil (I used a little butter instead bc I didn’t have coconut oil, but I wouldn’t specifically recommend this bc the chocolate solidified again pretty quickly (😂) and I had to re-heat it with some (almond) milk to make it thinner, which resulted in the whole thing clumping up a lot which is why some of the cherries look kind of messy 😂😂 but it still tasted nice bc eventually the cherry juice and yogurt melted into the chocolate which gave it a nice flavor haha). So anyway, I melted the chocolate on the stove to be ready at the end of the 15 minutes. Then I coated the frozen yogurt-covered cherries with the melted chocolate and froze it overnight! I was also curious what it would taste like without the yogurt coating, so the photo with the yellow plate shows cherries with solely a chocolate covering! I also had some left over chocolate after all of this, so I poured some raw almonds and some dried cranberries into the melted chocolate that was leftover, and then I spread it flat over the wax paper and froze it overnight to make a type of chocolate almond bark 😆 Thankfully all of it came out nicely and I would probably try doing this again, maybe next time with strawberries but I probably wouldn’t use yogurt for them haha. ~ #Christian #EnjoyLifeChocolateChips #Food #Snack #ChocolateCoveredCherries #Chocolate #Cherries #FrozenCherries #FrozenFruit #FrozenFruitRecipe #FrozenCherriesRecipe #Almonds #ChocolateCoveredAlmonds #Craisins #ChocolateCoveredCraisins #Vegan #VeganRecipe #VeganSnack #VeganChocolateCoveredCherries #VeganFood #🍒 #🍫 #❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpu1XkPMKJ4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s National Chocolate Covered Cherry Day! During the 1700s in England, cherries were enclosed in chocolate with a little kirsch (cordial) liqueur. After finding their way to the US, Americans began delighting in the little bit of alcoholic cordial surrounding the fruit dipped in chocolate. Although originally made with the liqueur, #Cordials, or #ChocolateCoveredCherries are more commonly made with a sugar syrup flavored with cherries. The pitted cherries have been cooked in sugar syrup and jarred. #NationalChocolateCoveredCherryDay #ChocolateCoveredCherry #FoodConsultant #FoodService #FoodServiceSolutions #FoodSales #Food #FoodDude #WeKnowFood #FoodOfTheDay #NobertSales @NobertSales (at Germantown, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm9BeHqA8eS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
