Ingredients

  • 8.8 ounces Trader Joe's Pound Plus Dark Chocolate Half the bar, or a cup of chocolate chips.
  • 3 cups Cornflakes
  • 1/3 cup Dried Cherries

Instructions

  1. Melt your chocolate over a double boiler. (Or if you approve of microwave ovens, melt it in a microwave.) If you are using the Trader Joe's Pound Plus bar, make sure you chop it into small pieces before melting.

  2. Once your chocolate is melted, add the cornflakes and dried cherries to the chocolate and stir until everything is coated with the melted chocolate.

  3. Spoon the mixture into Cow Pie piles on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or wax paper. This should make about 8-10 Cow Pies, depending on how big you like them.

  4. Chill in the fridge until hardened. 

  5. Remove from the fridge and enjoy!
