what amount of cherries
almost 8 years ago8 oz. of candied mixed cherries or fruit. In Canada we call them Cherries Glacé or Glace Mix.
almost 4 years agoWe use the cream cheese half chocolate and half butterscotch chips, colored mini marshmallows, cherries and walnuts melted and mixed then Quickly rolled in dessicated coconut with the help of two spoons. Serve and store chilled.
almost 3 years agoHow many cherries?
about 2 years agoCream balls very soft even in freezer overnight?

My best guess is the cream cheeses to chocolate chip ratio is off. You could try salvaging what you made by melting some more chips and mixing it in - the coconut will wind up mixed in, but it may fix it…? Or, too much liquid went in with the cherries. Either way, best guess at fixing is more melted chips.
