This recipe is adapted from a recipe my sister gave me. She found the original version on Food Network. It’s gluten free and super easy. The recipe makes a lot gooey goodness and will freeze well if you end up with extra.
Notes
Some easy substitutions:
SunButter or other nut butter if you have issues with peanuts.
White chocolate chips in place of or mixed with the chocolate chips.
Raisins or cranberries in place of cherries.
Chocolate colored candy or marshmallows works if you're not a fan of fruits.
