I have very fond memories of this recipe from my early childhood. Anytime my mother had friends over for drinks, or threw a party she would make these. I would always be dispatched to a quiet corner with a plate full of goodies, including loads of these! Now I make them for parties, or drink snacks, and everybody loves them. I make trays of these, and the amount listed below is quite small, so be prepared to make more! They are so simple but oh so effective! I tend to use streaky bacon for the fat content, but back bacon works fine too. Try them-you won't regret it!

SERVES 10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

20 slices streaky bacon
40 glace cherries

Directions

1
Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non stick spray.
2
Gently run a knife along each rasher of bacon to stretch it slightly, then cut it in half widthways.
3
Roll a cherry in each piece of bacon.
4
Place on baking tray and bake in a moderate oven until bacon is cooked and the fat is crisping up--you can grill these too, but be careful they don't burn.

These just tasted like cherries and bacon. I had higher hopes for these but was a little disappointed. They would be good with something tart-some kind of apricot glaze or preserves. I might try that next time. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

Fabulously delicious and, judging by the comments made, a really novel concept to all who enjoyed them at the New Year's Eve party I took them to. They disappeared SO fast. I had taken them on the tray ready to be cooked there. In making these, hadn't even registered the fact that they were to be made with glace cherries until I came to prepare them; I had bought two jars of maraschino cherries. The day before I had removed about a tablespoon of the syrup from each jar and had added tablespoon of port. I drained the cherries thoroughly before assembling them. These were just such totally delicious morsels and so easy to prepare: I'll certainly be making them again. Thank you for sharing another super recipe, Noo! Made for PRMR.
