Directions:
1. In a small bowl,combine the chopped cherries and kirsch.
2. Let soak for 1 hour.
3. Melt the chocolate with the cream ,stirring constantly until smooth over a low flame.
4. Remove from the heat and stir in the chopped cherries and liqueur.
5. Turn into a small bowl,cover,and refrigerate until firm,about 2 hours.
6. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
7. Using a melon ball scoop,make 1 balls of the chocolate mixture.
