The great folks over at Sparkling ICE sent over this recipe for me to share with all of you. One of the things I like about this recipe is that it requires no baking and it includes one of my favorite foods, chocolate! As an added bonus, it's easy to prepare! This recipe is definitely on my to-do list for sure!
No-Bake Cherry Crème Filled Dark Chocolate Bites Recipe
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
2 oz cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon Sparkling Ice® Black Cherry
2 tablespoons chopped dried sweet cherries
1 cup dark semisweet chocolate chips (60% cacao)
Toppings: Chopped pistachios, chopped almonds, coconut and chopped dried sweet cherries
In small bowl, combine powdered sugar, cream cheese and Sparkling Ice® Black Cherry, mixing to combine. Add dried cherries, mixing well to incorporate. Cover and refrigerate mixture for at least 1 hour; remove from fridge. With spoon or buttered hands, drop slightly less than ½ tablespoonful onto parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 30 to 45 minutes. (Mixture will be sticky.)
Melt chocolate per package microwave directions and set aside. Remove 1 to 2 frozen cherry fillings from the freezer at a time, and using toothpicks or 2 forks, dip each frozen filling into the chocolate to cover, shaking excess chocolate off. Place on parchment and top as desired. Continue for remaining chocolate bites. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.

This combines two of my favorite sweets: chocolate and cherries. I shall definitely be making these bites soon. I would dip them in a mixture of unsweetened chocolate and pistachios.
