The preparation of cherries with chocolate according to our recipe with a photo turns out to be unusually tasty. Dedicated to sincere lovers of cherries and chocolate.
Cherries and chocolate are amazingly combined. This duo can be called perfect, like Chip and Dale or spaghetti and ketchup. Eating such a jam is most delicious with waffles or pancakes. You can just take a bite of tea with a spoon, or you can prepare several identical jars and present to someone just like that! The main thing in all this is to prepare such a blank for the winter as easy as shelling pears.
Here are some tips on how to remove pits from cherries:
- Use a pin or pin to remove the pits. With the rounded end, pierce the cherry slightly away from the center and, prying the pit, remove it.
- Arm yourself with a wooden skewer and a narrow-necked bottle. We put the cherry on the neck (it should not slip inside). Squeeze the bone with a stick exactly in the center of the cherry.
- Use special de-pitting devices.

Cherry jam with chocolate for the winter - step by step preparation with a photo
My cherries and sort out. Only whole and ripe berries are needed for jam. We remove the stalks. We take out the bones in any convenient way.
Fill the cherries with sugar and leave for 4 hours to let the juice flow. Crack the container periodically. If you have not found gelling sugar anywhere, then take regular sugar and a pack or two jellies, add it according to the instructions.
That's how much juice our cherry gave. You can have less or the same. It all depends on the variety and juiciness of the cherry.
Bring the cherries to a boil, reduce the heat. Cook for 10 minutes, skimming off the foam.
Add chocolate to the jam and turn off the gas. Stir well until the chocolate is completely dissolved. By the way, chocolate is perfectly replaced by high-quality cocoa.
We pour the jam into dry and sterile jars.
We seal the jars with lids.
Store the finished jam in a cool and dark place.
