This recipe is a favorite for our family at Christmas time. It was first made for us by a Welshman who had married a Southern Belle and was attending our church in Tennessee. What a lovely couple and what fond memories we have of them every time we indulge in these sweets. Ingredients:
10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips |
6 ounces sweetened coconut |
3 ounces raisins |
3 ounces glace cherries |
1 egg, beaten |
1 dash milk |
1 tablespoon sherry wine |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 325°F.
2. In the top of a double boiler, melt chocolate.
3. In a small bowl beat one egg with the milk and Sherry.
4. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
5. Carefully (it's hot!) pour melted chocolate onto parchment paper and spread it into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
6. Sprinkle coconut, raisins, cherries glace evenly over the chocolate.
7. Brush top of the fruited chocolate with the Sherry mixture.
8. Bake for at about 20 minutes - taking care not to burn.
9. Cool and refrigerate for about 3 hours.
10. Cut or break into bite-sized pieces.
11. It's lovely as a gift in a decorative container.
