Cherry Marzipan With White Chocolate

The tongue is you in a unique way. It is the tattletale on the heart and discloses the real person. Not only that, but misuse of the tongue is perhaps the easiest way to sin. There are some sins that an individual may not be able to commit simply because he does not have the opportunity. But there are no limits to what one can say, no built-in restraints or boundaries. In Scripture, the tongue is variously described as wicked, blasphemous, foolish, boasting, complaining, cursing, contentious, sensual and vile. And that list is not exhaustive. No wonder God put the tongue in a cage behind the teeth, walled in by the mouth!

INSTRUCTIONS

The marzipan: Prepare a frosting sugar by cooking sugar, water and
vanila. Cook on a very low heat until the syrup becomes very thick  and
sticky. If you use a density meter it should read 37 to 38  degrees.
Mix with almonds which have been ground to a very fine powder, on a
marble surface. We obtain a white paste used in all recipes for
'petits fours'.  The cherries: They can be fresh, brandied or sugared.
Take the pips  out. If they are too wet, roll them in some icing sugar
to dry them.  The chocolate coating: mlet white chocolate with water
and keep warm  in a double boiler.  Divide the marzipan into small
balls. Take one ball, shape it around  one cherry. Skew it on a tooth
stick and dip it into the chocolate.  Cool on a marble.  Recipe by:
