These were great. Instead of using cherries with stems I used stemless cherries and placed them in small paper cups.

Yum! I have never made anything like this before. They were not difficult at all to make and they are so good. I doubled the fondant recipe like someone else suggested. If your going through the trouble of making them I would deffinatly double it. Next time I will get the mini baking papers so they don't break when I try to move them.

These were wonderful - we couldn't stop eating them. Used marchino cherries with the stems (3 10 oz. bottles). I would not recommend using packaged chocolate that can just be zapped in the microwave (mainly for dipping fruits) as the chocolate is very inferior. It is just as easy (and only slightly more messy) to melt chocolate chips etc. with shortening and you will definately like those results better. Thanks for the great recipe.

The chocolate covered cherries tasted great. I got a lot of compliements on them. Everyone loved them. I used melted milk chocolate chips for the coating instead of the confectionery coating. With the listed ingredients for the dough, I could only wrap 42 cherries.

This is a very yummy and simple recipe. Chocolate covered cherries are my favorite candy and I am very picky about them. The only thing I will do next time is double dip the bottoms- they tend to spring a leak and get a bit sticky. Rave reviews!

These are awesome! I tried some with white chocolate almond bark which received rave reviews. Good bye store bought cherries, this recipe is a definite keeper. They make very nice gifts at Christmas as well. Try the white chocolate! You'll love it.

These are SO good. I make them every year for Christmas. One thing though-if you are going to go to all this trouble, please use a good quality chocolate. You'll never want another chocolate covered cherry from a box.

These are awsome!. I used Bakers semi-sweet dipping chocolate on some and Dolci Frutta(a sweeter fruit dipping chocolate on the others.Next time I make them I plan on soaking the cherries in brandy or southern comfort first,sounds good doesnt it:). Thank you for sharing this recipe.Its a hit.

Out of this world!! I can't wait to try these out on family and friends on the holidays. These are perfect just the way they are, but next time I'm going to try adding a few drops of mint flavoring to the dough mixture to have chocolate mint cherries,just for something a little different. Also after the first dipping of chocolate( I used Chocolate Almond Bark and it worked really well) try dipping them a second time half way,in melted Vanilla Almond Bark. I think they would look great. Thank you for sharing the recipe.I will be making these alot for special occasions.

I have always wanted to learn how to do these. The recipe is wonderful. I made them on last week, and my sister-in-law wanted to try them and i let her, she wanted to take some with her, and i told her, they had to set for atlease a week or two. So on today i let my husband take some to work and he just could not believe how good they were. I will be making these again and again. Thank you.

Wonderful! I didn't use stemmed cherries. I made some in my candy mold & the others I just dipped the candy into the chocolate using a fork to manage the candy. *Chocolate needs to be solid around the candy or as it ripens it will leak.

Awesome recipe, and so easy! I used 2 cans of cherries, which turned out to be about 55. The fondant was very easy to work with. I used semi-sweet chocolate chips melted with a little shortening and put the cherries in mini foil cups. Served them at a Valentine's party I had, everyone loved them! They really do get better with age. I know it's hard, but try to save them at least 10 days!

I made these for my grandmother for Christmas, but my husband and I couldn't stop eating them! I wish I knew how to add wax to chocolate candies so that they don't melt so easily - that is the only thing I would change. These are very time consuming to make.

Oh my God! These are so awesome. I cannot believe I can make these at home! They truly are as good or better than what you get in the store. We couldn't wait two weeks for them to ripen, ate them all in a few days and made more. The recipe only makes 30 for me rather than 60, but just double it up. Really fantastic - thanks so much for a great recipe that I will make over and over again.

I made these for the holiday season, and MAN are they delicious! My dad is a huge fan of these, so he absolutely loved them. My sister-in-law and I had to "sample" them before we could give them out. This one will definitely be used in the future!
