Cherry Cordial Bark Recipe

Welcome to January 3rd and the third day of our daily National Food Day recipes. Today we have a Chocolate Covered Cherry Cordial Bark Recipe since it’s National Chocolate Covered Cherries day!

And who doesn’t love Chocolate Covered Cherries?

They’re almost as good as Chocolate Covered Strawberries. 

I remember as a kid not being able to wait to go to Grandma’s because of the endless supply of Queen Anne cordial cherries! These are so addictive, and now there is this awesome recipe to use these great candies as a core ingredient to create these yummy cherry cordial bark treats that everyone will love.

Ingredients:

• 1 box Cordial Cherries
• 1 lb almond bark, chocolate
• 1 square almond bark, white chocolate
• 1/2 cup maraschino cherries
• Red sugar crystals, for garnish

Directions:

1. Line or oil a baking sheet or cake pan to set your bark in.
2. Set aside.
3. Place your chocolate almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl.

4. Melt for 35 seconds, then stir, and reheat as needed until the chocolate is completely melted.

5. Place several dabs of melted chocolate along your cake pan and then set your cordial cherries and maraschino cherries in the chocolate. (Optionally, you can slice your cherries in half for less obvious bumps in your bark.)

6. Pour the remaining melted chocolate over the entire pan – use an offset spatula to help you smooth the bark, as necessary.

7. Let set at room temperature or in the fridge until hard.
8. Melt the white chocolate almond bark and drizzle over the hardened chocolate bark. While the drizzle is still wet, sprinkle on your red sugar crystals.

9. Break the bark into several bite-sized pieces before packaging or serving.
