CHOCOLATE-COVERED CHERRIES
Not only is this my family's favorite festive dessert, but it makes a delicious holiday present, too. Best of all, you can (and should) prepare these ahead. The candy gets better as it's stored, with the centers becoming even juicier. -Linda Hammerich, Bonanza, Oregon

CHOCOLATE CHERRY BOURBON BALLS
This is kind of a cross between a cookie and a candy. My mom used to make these every year during the holidays when I was a kid, although times were different back then, and since this is no-bake, the alcohol doesn't have a chance to cook off. Yeah, don't give these to the kids! Servings are based on two of these per person... Good luck stopping at two!

CHOCOLATE CHERRY BALLS
These cadies can be made as gifts anytime of the year. However, I think they would make a nice addition to your Christmas gift list and cookie tray. Paraffin can usually be found in the canning section of the store. Actually, hardware stores are the best place to find it.

CHOCOLATE CHERRY KID FRIENDLY RUM BALLS
My family has been making these rum balls for as long as I can remember. We use light cream cheese (which MUST be block style as it is firmer than tub style) to make them lower in fat, and rum extract as that is what we prefer. My mom always let my brother and I cover the rum balls in the chocolate sprinkles which was a highlight of the holiday preparations
