Equipment

  • Serving board
  • Small bowl
  • Knife

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces dark chocolate
  • 16 cherry cordials
  • 1 cup fresh cherries
  • ½ cup dried cherries
  • ¼ cup cherry preserves

Instructions
 

  • Break the dark chocolate into small squares and spread them across a large serving board in two or three loose clusters.
  • Tuck the cherry cordials into the spaces between the chocolate pieces so they are easy to grab.
  • Scatter the fresh cherries and dried cherries around the other items in small groups for color and texture.
  • Spoon the cherry preserves into a small bowl and set the bowl on the board so guests can dip pieces as they like.

Notes

Choose a dark chocolate with at least 70 percent cocoa so the flavor stands up to the sweet cordials. Assemble the board no more than two hours ahead and keep it in a cool spot to prevent the chocolate from softening. If the preserves feel thick, give them a quick stir before placing them out.
