This is easy, quick and deeply satisfying.
It is not baking, but it might be alchemy.
Line a deep baking tray (26 x 31 x 2.5 cm) with baking parchment.
Melt 200g good dark chocolate and 100g unsalted butter in a large bowl over gently simmering water, stirring until combined.
Fold in 350g condensed milk and 250g grated coconut
(gently toasted in a large dry pan) and 200g glace cherries, chopped.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared tray and spread into an even layer.
Chill in the 'fridge for 4-5 hours, then cut into small squares.
Store in the fridge between nibbling.
I did something today. Something HUGE. Something TERRIFYING. Something i should have done months ago, but at least now the first step is taken.
The funny thing is, when i arrived at the door with my ticking time bomb in hand, the door was locked. The idea of returning home having *not* delivered the envelope filled me with absolute dread. I waited for a minute or two, heard the rattle of keys, and the secretary appeared from the basement. A big sigh of relief.
So, the divorce papers are in. The rock is rolling.

Now *that* is something I have to try.... I adore cherries and chocolate!
Good on you, girlie... It is a process and you've got the ball rolling. Be strong. It is absolutely for the best. xoxo
I feel the same way about you, C. Even though you have less grumpies than I do. Take care, OK? XS
