1 c. Eagle Brand milk
1/2 lb. butter
2 1/2 tbsp. white Karo syrup
3 lbs. powdered sugar
2 or 3 drops vanilla
6 jars cherries with stems
1 bag chocolate chips

Make small balls, punch thumb in them, put cherry in the hole, and press mixture all around the cherry. Hold by stem and dip into chocolate. Sit on waxed paper to harden.

CHOCOLATE: In double boiler pour 1 bag chips and shave up bar of wax, let melt. If chocolate gets thick while dipping, just reheat.
