ReplyDeleteSo funny, you commented this a day before I watch the movie 12 Dates of Christmas. I would say to mix in the chocolate chips when you mix in the cherries. I've done that with the recipe and it turned out grand.
DeleteThat's funny; I looked up this recipe after watching the movie. I was wondering if they were referring to actual cherry chips; I think I've seen them in stores sometimes.
ReplyDeleteHi Amanda!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for posting this recipe. I loved that it had just the cherries in it! I am not a huge fan of chocolate with fruit in dessert dishes. I think you did a wonderful job! I am going to post this recipe on my blog also. So yummy!
Merry Christmas to you and yours!

sweet! I also looked this up because of 12 Dates of Christmas - I've watched it every other day this month (I'm gonna cry when it's no longer on Netflix). My friend loves this movie so I'm gonna try the recipe for her birthday. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI made them into muffins (makes about 20). Bake for 18-21 minutes at 350. Came out very light and fluffy! Used whole 10oz. jar of maraschino cherries. Gonna add 1 cup pecans next time!
ReplyDeleteLove this Movie! <3 Thanks for the recipe! I'll bake the cake soon <3
