Cravings for Chocolate Covered Cherries!

[Healthe]

Hi Everyone,
I had a craving for chocolate covered cherries over Memorial weekend. I know that it was a "memory" craving because my grandfather who was a WWII Vet loved chocolate covered cherries. Isn't our minds wonderful? Anyway, I made up a recipe that satisfied my cravings. Here it is:

2 cups almonds, ground up
1/4 honey
1/8 cup carob
1-12 oz package of frozen black cherries

I ground up the almonds in the food processor first, then I added the rest of the ingredients. I then, rolled them into balls & placed them back in the freezer.

Even my "unraw" friends loved them!

O.k. I'm curious here as I don't use frozen fruits/veggies. Did you thaw the fruit first or use it still frozen? I'm thinking frozen as if thawing first, dangerous to re-freeze, no?

If you have Alissa's book, she has the BEST recipe for a Black Forest Cake which pretty much taste like the chocolate covered cherries. It's a totally decadent treat.
