Description

Cor-dial: warm and sincere; friendly: a cordial greeting; cordial relations.

This recipe could not be more cordial. Perfect for Valentine’s Day!

Ingredients

  • ¼ cups Softened Butter
  • 6 cups Powederd Sugar
  • ¼ cups Cherry Schnapps
  • 4 Tablespoons Sweetened, Condensed Milk
  • 1 Tablespoon Cherry Vodka
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • 60 whole Maraschino Cherries
  • 2 pounds High Quality Semi-sweet Chocolate
  • 1 teaspoon Parowax Household Parafin Wax

Preparation

Place butter, powdered sugar, cherry Schnapps, sweetened condensed milk, cherry vodka and salt into mixer.

Turn on mixer to a slow speed until some of the powdered sugar is mixed in with the other ingredients and then turn to a higher speed to prevent powdered sugar from flying everywhere.

Place a towel or plastic over the filling to keep it moist and set aside.

Drain cherries.

Lay cherries on a few paper towels to allow excess juice to drain.

Wrap cherries in the filling, rolling between hands to form a ball. Place them into a flat container that will fit in your fridge.

Place filling-wrapped cherries in fridge for about 15-20 minutes to chill. This makes them easier to dip.

Melt 2 pounds of a top quality chocolate over low heat in a double boiler or saucepan and then stir in a teaspoon of grated household wax for shine until fully combined and melted.

Set cherries on a fork, lower into the chocolate until fully coated and then gently tap over edge of the chocolate bowl to remove excess chocolate.

Use a knife to carefully slide the cordial off of the fork and onto parchment to allow the chocolate time to set.

Place in small foil candy paper cups, preferably red.

@ cknowers Yes, perfect for Valentine’s Day. :) They are very yummy. Your cranberry orange pancakes look tasty too. I’ll have to try those at our B&B!

I have a recipe just like this but haven’t made it years. Thanks for posting it! Now I don’t have to dig mine out. The only differences I do are if children are eating these I use the cherry juice in stead of the alcohol and I leave on the cherry stems. I find that it make them easier to dip.
