    Recipe Introduction


    Each mouse will have his own personality These are darling.

    List of Ingredients




    1 jar Maraschino Cherries with stems
    Hershey Chocolate Kisses (one for each cherry)
    Chocolate chips or dipping chocolate
    Sliced Almonds
    Tube of Gel-type decorating frosting (pink or red)

    Recipe



    Melt chocolate chips in double boiler
    Drain cherries and dry on paper towels
    Unwrap Kisses
    Cover tray or cookie sheet with wax paper or foil
    Sort out a selection of unbroken almond slices (two for each cherry)

    1. Dip cherry in melted chocolate – covering stem as well as fruit (I use tweezers to hold tip of stem)

    2. As you remove cherry shake off extra chocolate and place the flat side of a Kiss opposite the stem

    3. Lay Cherry/Kiss on wax paper on its side (the Kiss is the head/nose of mouse – stem is the tail)

    4. Let cool slightly before inserting two almond slices between kiss and cherry to make mouse ears.

    5. With tube of gel-frosting, make two small dots on kiss to give the mouse his eyes.

    6. Cool, remove from wax paper
