Author Notes: A Paleo friendly snack or dessert that is quick, simple, and yummy! —Lauren Stewart
Serves: 4-5 people for a dessert, or you can keep them all to yourself to snack on throughout the week!
Ingredients
-
1
pound bag of cherries
-
1/2
cup coconut milk
-
1
10 oz bag of vegan carob chips
-
chopped walnuts for sprinkling
Directions
- Take the stems off of the cherries and wash them in the sink. You can choose to take the pits out if you want. I didn’t because it messed with the shape of the cherries and I didn’t think it would hold the chocolate very well, but you’re welcome to experiment!
- Pour the coconut milk into a pot and heat over medium heat – don’t bring to a boil, but keep it warm
- Pour the carob chips into the pot with the coconut milk and take off heat. Consistently stir until the chocolate melts with the warm milk
- Dip the cherries into the melted chocolate and let the excess drip off. Or for more evenly covered cherries, dip using a toothpick and set them on a foam block as they dry.
- Put toppings on immediately to insure they stick as the chocolate dries.
- Place cherries on a platter with parchment paper and store in the fridge for about an hour for the chocolate to harden.
