INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/4 cups dried cherries
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 (11 ounce) packages white chocolate chips
  • 4 (3 ounce) bars vanilla-flavored candy coating
  • 1 1/4 cups chopped pistachio nuts

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a small glass bowl, microwave cherries with water on high for 2 minutes; drain, and set aside.
  2. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate chips and candy coating together until melted and smooth, stirring occasionally. Stir in cherries and chopped pistachios, and spread into a wax paper-lined 15x10 inch pan. Chill for 1 hour, or until firm.
  3. Cut into 1 inch squares, and enjoy. Store unused portion in an air-tight container.

It doesn't get any easier--or more foolproof--than this. I halved the recipe, using almonds instead of more expensive pistachios, and it turned out fantastically. Despite my attempt at screwing up even this easy no-bake recipe (turned my head away from the microwave too long, and scorched the interior of the pile of white chocolate chips a light brown--but with a few tablespoons of water added and the chips stirred around, it turned a perfect creamy off-white), this recipe went off without a hitch, and disappeared at the social dance I brought it to. I even got the compliment, "Wow! This tastes like something I'd get at Kilwin's!"

Very good, but mine didn't come out very pretty. I had trouble with melting the chocolate and I used too much pistachio, but the taste was still there.

I made this recipe last year as part of my food gift packages for family and friends. They were a huge success. Everyone seemed to really like the combination of cherries and pistachios. Thanks for a tasty and easy recipe.
