Yield 50 cherries

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup pistachios, shelled, skinned, and finely chopped
4 ounces dark chocolate, grated
4 ounces heavy cream
1 lb about 50 sweet cherries, pitted, stems intact

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Place the pistachios in a shallow bowl and set aside. Place chocolate in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Bring cream to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.
  • Pour hot cream over chocolate and let sit for about 30 seconds; stir until the chocolate melts completely.
  • Holding by the stem, dip the bottom of a cherry in the chocolate mixture, lightly shake off excess chocolate, and dip the cherry in the chopped pistachios.
  • Transfer to the prepared sheet pan. Repeat with remaining cherries, refrigerate for 10 minutes, and store in a cool, dry place. Cherries will keep for several hours. Enjoy!
