- In the microwave or over the stove, melt the chocolate. Stir until smooth.

Steps:
- Before starting, you may wish to take a look at the step-by-step instructions with photos. SEE LINK IN DESCRIPTION ABOVE.
- Line a cookie sheet with waxed or parchment paper.
- Rinse the maraschino cherries, drain thoroughly, and let dry on paper towels, turning often.
- The cherries must be completely dry or the chocolate will seize and get crumbly.
- Gently melt chocolate, butter, and paraffin in a double boiler until smooth, stirring often to prevent burning.
- Once melted, turn off heat, but leave in the double-boiler on the burner.
- Dip dry cherries in melted chocolate to completely cover up to the stem.
- Place on lined cookie sheet.
- Immediately press on chocolate chip, flat side to the front of the dipped cherry, to form a head.
- While chocolate is still warm, wedge two sliced almonds between chocolate chip and cherry to form ears. Let cool.
- Use a toothpick to dab beady red eyes on either side of the chocolate chip with the red gel icing.
- Refrigerate to firmly set chocolate.
- Notes:.
- 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.

Kids love them. I did growing up -- my mom use to make these around Christmas time, but great for anytime! You can make as many as you want. They are great to look at.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Chop the confectioners' coating into chunks, and place into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat the coating in the microwave oven on High for 30 seconds; then heat again 4 or 5 more times for 10 to 15 seconds each time until the coating is warm (not hot) and melted. Stir well until the chocolate coating is smooth and free of lumps. The coating should be about 95 degrees F (35 degrees C).
- Dry the cherries well with paper towels. Holding each cherry by the stem, dip it into the chocolate coating to just reach the bottom of the stem. Carefully lay the cherry on its side, so the stem sticks out the side. This will be the tail. Before the coating sets up, stick the flat side of an unwrapped chocolate kiss opposite the tail, to make a pointy-nosed face. Pick out two nicely shaped slivers of almond, and insert them between the chocolate kiss and the dipped cherry to make little ears. Use a toothpick to make two small dots of melted coating on the face for eyes; stick two little red candies to the coating dots. Repeat with the rest of the cherries. Allow the coating to set until firm and cool, about 30 minutes.
