Delicious recipes for red velvet cakes, cupcakes, and cheesecakes.

Wine, cherries, and chocolate? Hard to pick a trifecta of more romantic ingredients.

2 cups red wine
1 cup granulated sugar
2 strips (1 x 2 inches each) lemon zest
24 cherries with stems, pitted
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted
Combine the wine, sugar and zest in a small heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add the cherries and simmer for 2 minutes.
Remove from the heat and let the cherries cool in the pan. Remove the cherries from the saucepan and drain thoroughly.
Holding each cherry by its stem, dip into the melted bittersweet chocolate.
Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment or wax paper. Refrigerate until set, about 20 minutes.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
