On a diet? In summer you don't have to give up the decadent stuff. Here's a 2 minute instructable to make a chocolate dipped cherry for your pleasure.

I hope you appreciate the grainy food porn pics!

INGREDIENTS
1 tablet dark chocolate
1 cherry

1 microwave safe bowl required

If you're feeling ambitious: chop up toasted almonds to roll the cherry in after coating with chocolate. yummm

Melt a Tablet of Dark Chocolate

Put the tablet of chocolate in a microwave safe bowl.

If you're lazy:
Micro it for 1 minute. You can use the cherry to stir the melted chocolate around and cover it. (How eco, no utensils)

If you're not:
Micro for 30 seconds.
Then stir the chocolate around until it melts from the heat of the bowl. This way ensures the chocolate won't burn.

Roll the Cherry Around to Coat

Either eat it fondue style with melted chocolate.

Or pop it in the freezer for a minute - and voila - chocolate covered cherry in 2 minutes!

(PS You can microwave the leftover chocolate and swath it up with another cherry from the bowl :)
