Chocolate-Covered Cherry Mice Recipe
They are almost too cute to eat! Great for children's birthday parties, bake sales, and of course, Halloween.

Here are some further tips and hints:

• It is imperative that the cherries are completely dry. Otherwise, the moisture will cause the melted chocolated to seize and become thick and grainy.
• If fresh sweet cherries are in season, by all means use them.
Paraffin is sold in the canning supplies section, usually under the brand Gulf Wax.
• You can use the giant chocolate bars for the semisweet chocolate, or semisweet baking squares, or chocolate chips.
• If your cherries are exceptionally large, you may wish to use chocolate kisses for the heads.
