    Chocolate Covered Cherries


    Source of Recipe


    internet

    List of Ingredients




    1/3 cup margarine
    2 cups marshmallow fluff
    1 teaspoon almond extract
    4 cups sifted powdered sugar
    dash salt
    36 maraschino cherries
    1 package(12 ounce) semi-sweet chocolate pieces

    Recipe



    Cream margarine. Beat in the marshmallow fluff, and the almond extract. Add powdered sugar gradually, mixing well. Turn out the mix onto a board, and knead until smoothe, working in more sugar as neccessary if mix becomes too sticky. Regrigerate one hour. Drain cherries very well, then using the kneaded sugar mix, now called "fondant"---pinching off some of that fondant, wrap each cherry to make sure the cherry is completely covered, then refrigerate again. Melt the chocolate in top of double boiler, over hot, but not boiling water. Dip each wrapped cherry in the melted chocolate and place on waxed paper and refrigerate to harden.
    Makes about 3 dozen.
