For the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine chocolate and evaporated milk. Cook and stir over low heat until mixture comes to a boil. Lower heat and cook gently for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly until thickened. Cool, stirring occasionally.

Here are the questions asked by community members. Read on to see the answers provided by the ThriftyFun community.
Family has given us three boxes of cheap chocolate-covered cherries, also known as cherry cordials. You know, the ones sold at Christmas time in an oblong box, with several candies inside nestled in two plastic trays. They're shaped like a bon-bon with a chocolate shell, super-sweet filling and cherry inside.
We once liked candies similar to these, but in recent years they have not appealed to us. I suppose they have a more cheap taste than they once did, or mayhap it is just that our tastes have changed, or something. We just can't enjoy eating them now, or at least not this type with its thick white and almost grainy center. These seem to be a particularly cheap brand. (We would probably still enjoy a better brand.) Family had good intentions and was just being nostalgic, of course.
Any ideas for recipes to use these? Seems like they might be good in a cake or something. Maybe cooked inside a cupcake?
