   Pick up one cherry by its stem and dip it into the melted milk chocolate, so that most of the cherry is covered in the milk chocolate but a little bit of the actual cherry is still visible. Lift the cherry up from the milk chocolate and, holding it over the bowl, gently shake so excess chocolate drips back into the bowl.
