2 egg yolks
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup confectioners' sugar

36 maraschino cherries
½ cup flaked coconut

Steps:

  • Blend together the butter, egg yolks, vanilla, salt, confectioners' sugar and flour.

  • Cool and dip in tinted butter icing. Roll in coconut flakes. ENJOY!

These cherry flips were a disaster! They were so dry and crumbly, I couldn't even eat them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cherry flips didn't turn out as good as I expected. They were a bit bland.

I'm not usually a fan of cherry desserts, but these cherry flips were surprisingly good. The chocolate and cherry flavors really complemented each other.
