We had some cherries, so Gigi and I wanted to make a dessert. After looking in a couple of cookbooks, Gigi finally convinced me: we didn’t need a recipe! We could make our own! Here’s what Gigi did…..
First, Gifi pitted some cherries. She decided on 5 per person, do she pitted 35 for 7 folks.
In a double boiler she melted an 85% Lindt chocolate bar.
Once melted, Gigi dipped each cherry in the chocolate. She spooned any extra chocolate over the cherries. She placed the chocolate covered cherries on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
Gigi then placed the cookie sheet in the freezer for about an hour. After an hour she took them out and arranged them on a serving tray.
The timing was perfect! The cherries were not frozen but perfectly cold when we went to eat them for dessert.
Nice job Gigi!!
