BASIC MIXTURE
1 package, Cream Cheese, 8 OZ.
2 LBS, Powdered Sugar, 1 pound = 4 cups
Chocolate: amzn.to/44cKWnR
Check the date on your cream cheese when purchasing, can get it a couple months ahead.
Let cream cheese come to room temperature, add powdered sugar a little at a time and cut into cheese with a fork or pastry cutter, after you have added a couple cups of sugar, pour mixture out on wax paper or counter top and continue to work the rest of sugar into cheese until you can work with it without sticking to your hands, will look like pie dough, will take about 2 pounds of sugar.
You can make many different candies with this mixture.
CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRIES
Drain cherries on paper towels for about 8 hours, changing paper a couple times in this period. Using a little powdered sugar to keep it from sticking to your hands, pinch off a small amount of dough and press flat in your hand, wrap this around cherry and set on wax paper to dry. After dry you will need to dip the bottom again as there will be a hole in the bottom. You can set them on the same paper to dry, store in a container and in about 7 days they will liquify inside, do not refrigerate during this time.

Pajamas are the best to wear when you’re cleaning, or a big kitchen project like this one. 😃
I've made these with my mama since I was little, I'm now 51 years old, we also used the same "dough" and added peppermint flavoring to it and covered them with chocolate for our own peppermint patties at Christmas 🎄
I just found you. All I can say is yummy! I enjoyed your class. The cream cheese is great. I have used butter but butter takes over the flavor. Thank you Texas
Wow! Thx! Love the technique of just rolling the balls on top of the chocolate instead of dipping 🤩👏🏻
Would love to see you make Maple nut and “Mallows”. But I will also try the Cherry ones.
Thank you so much for the recipe. My mom and me love the ones from the store and we've been wondering if there was a recipe. My mom told me my aunt had made them before for her baby shower, and she never knew how. My mom always baked but she didn't make candy at all. I feel like this would be so fun and they would turn out amazing
I just made my first ever chocolate covered cherries. Your recipe looked extra delicious with the cream cheese. I will have to try making them! Thanks for your video. I am an artist and country cook. People love getting homemade baked goods and candy as Christmas gifts. Hope others try making these after watching your video. They take time to make, but worth the effort.
Thanks for your great tutorial. I lived in kentucky boarder .My kiddos are all grown now and i usually made finecrochet and clothes for them all. As a granny im now also making sweeties for them. Thats the Irish term for candy. I also do a more private job to help mamas and dadas soo my hobbies help me to enjoy my grandbabas even more. Just a few sweeties for treats. Love from Ireland. Miss you all over tgere 💕
Sounds great!
Love the video!
I am going to try this on pitted cherries from our garden that have been marinated in alcohol and some sugar. 🍒Thank you for this recipe and for a great video. Greetings from Sweden! 🇸🇪
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing this!
Our pleasure!
I made mine with butter and confectioners sugar ,cherry extract and a lil bit of an enzyme that with convert the sugar to liquid in a couple weeks.
Invertase!

I can’t believe we have the same name 😮
Gotta try this recipe. How can I store unused dough?
And how long does it take for the centers to liquefy?
In a Ziplock bag and refrigerate.
Cherries take about 7 days
Does the cream cheese and sugar become like a fondant - clear liquid?
yes it does
After the 7 days do you keep them out or put in fridge. When you make the peppermint patties do they go liquidity too
do not have to refrigerate, no the peppermint patty will not liquify, it is the mix with the cherry juice.
Surely do wsth you had told how long it takes for the cherries to liquefy and also wish you had shown and cut one open after it had set long enough! These look good!
i did let you know it takes 7 to 10 days to liquify.
@@vintagetochic Sorry! I must have looked right over that----or forgot! Thank you!
If the waffwers aren't available, Can we use milk chocolate chips or chocolate almond bark to dip cherries?
To be sure I'm getting this right. I don't put the choc. covered cherries in the fridge until after the 7 days? Then after the 7 days I refrigerate to store them? Or can they be stored at room temperature the whole time? Please respond!
you do not have to refrigerate at all. be sure your cream cheese has a good exp. date, usually a couple months out.
How long does it need to liquidity
about 7 to 10 days
