Notes
Why is there flour coating the cherries?
This helps prevent the cherries from sinking to the bottom of the dough while baking.
How can I fix the dough if it is too stiff?
Add milk if needed, 1 tablespoon at a time, kneading the dough in the bowl until it is no longer sticky, approximately 10 times.
The white chocolate coating is too thick. How do I fix it?
To make the white chocolate more of a drizzle, add 1 teaspoon solid coconut oil or solid crisco that has been melted. Do not allow water to mix with white chocolate or it will seize and become very hard.
