What an elegant way to serve everyday chocolates! Maraschino Cherry Chocolate Treats made in minutes – ready for tea time, dessert or to add to a sweet platter.

The Cherries do not only add visual delight but tastes wonderful with the Chocolate. And the better quality Chocolate you use, the tastier.

I use White and Brown Chocolate to make different treats and the drizzling on top looks great with the opposite color chocolate than the base.

These two-bite sweet treats are unbelievably easy to make, using only chocolate and Maraschino cherries.

I use mini silicone molds ( about a heaped tablespoonful needed for each treat ), but mini cupcake liners will do as well.

Use molds to suit the occasion. Stars for Christmas or New Year, hearts for Valentines Day, plain round or square molds are great for most occasions though.
