Chocolate Covered Cherries

It’s reported that these are better than the store bought variety. I love CCC’s so I’m going to have to give it a try!

You’ll need:

3 c powdered sugar
1/4 c margarine or butter
1/4 c condensed sweetened milk (not evaporated)
4 tsp vanilla extract
pinch salt
1 pkg high end chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet, or dark)
1 jar(s) maraschino cherries, drained and dried, reserve the juice.
