Submitted by DMSawan

"I was looking at a recipe on this site, decided to get creative and this is what I came up with. My son loves his chocolate, I had cherries that I didn't want to go bad, and went with other things that I had on hand, thought they would go together...and this is what I came up with. Smells wonderful when it is cooking. It doesn't taste real sweet,"
