Nutty Chocolate Cherry Kisses


Ingredients:
- Bag of Hershey Milk Chocolate Kisses
- 4 Table Spoons of Red Cherry Preserves
- 1 Cup Roasted Mix Nuts

Cooking Instructions

1. Put one cup of mixed nuts in a zip-lock bag and cover with a paper towel, using a hammer chop the nuts until they are a fine texture.

2. Place prepared nuts in a small bowl. In another bowl spoon out 4 tablespoons of the cherry preserves.

3. Take a butter knife and run hot tap water over the tip of the blade for 20-30 seconds until warm. Stir the cup of preserves to soften them creating a more fluid texture similar to syrup. Repeat if necessary.

4. Unwrap the Hershey Kisses (as many as you want). Using a toothpick insert into the flat side of one of the kisses. Dip each chocolate tip down into the cherry preserve bowl and coat completely. Once coated sprinkle the chopped nuts over the kiss.

5. Hold the toothpick with the tip of the kiss facing upright, slide toothpick between lines of a fork so that the kiss is resting on the fork. Gently tug down on the toothpick to remove the candy piece.

6. Once your plate is complete put in the refrigerator and let cool completely. Store in air tight container until ready to serve.
