Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl beat together butter, corn syrup, milk and extracts. Slowly beat in the powdered sugar until a dough forms that you can easily shape into small balls. Coat your hands with powdered sugar to prevent dough from sticking and form 50 small balls.
  2. Press your thumb into the center of a dough ball to create an indentation and gently press a cherry inside and pinch the dough to close around the cherry; roll on nonstick surface to reshape into a ball so that the cherry is completely covered. Repeat until done.
  3. Using a double boiler melt the chocolate and dip candies. Lay the candies on cookie sheets lined with wax paper until the chocolate is set and then stick in the freezer for about an hour.
