  • Prep Time 15 minutes
  • Total Time 15 minutes plus cooling
  • Yield Makes 18

Ingredients

    • 3 cups cornflakes
    • 1/2 cup dried cherries
    • 10 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped (1 3/4 cups)

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, break cornflakes into small pieces with your fingers. Add cherries and toss together.
  2. Place 2/3 cup chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pot of simmering water. Stir occasionally until chocolate melts, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add remaining chocolate, stirring until melted. (Alternatively, microwave the chocolate in a bowl in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until melted.) Pour over cornflake mixture and, with a rubber spatula, gently fold just until cereal and cherries are completely coated.
  3. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto two parchment-lined baking sheets and let set in a cool, dry place, 1 hour.
