I’ve grown up eating chocolate stuffed cherries and whenever November rolls around you start seeing them in the stores! I use to buy a few boxes to tide me over for the rest of the year when they are harder to find but I decided to make my own! These are actually pretty easy to make (hard to believe right?!). Enjoy!
