Recipe View 30 mins Set and Behold: Allow the chocolate to set completely until firm and cool. This may take approximately 30 minutes at room temperature, or speed up the process by refrigerating for 15 minutes. (30 minutes)

Ensure the cherries are thoroughly dry to help the chocolate adhere properly.
Work quickly once the chocolate is melted to prevent it from setting before you've added all the decorations.
For a festive touch, consider using white chocolate confectioners' coating and decorating with green and red candies.
Store the finished mice in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
