INGREDIENTS:
8 tablespoons melted butter
6 tablespoons corn syrup
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 pounds confectioners' sugar
3 (10 ounce) jars maraschino cherries, drained
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 tablespoon shortening

DIRECTIONS:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine butter, corn syrup, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and sugar. Knead dough, and form it into balls with a cherry wrapped in the middle. The balls should be approximately the size of walnuts. Place balls in the freezer to chill.
2. In a double boiler, melt chocolate chips and shortening together. Dip the cooled balls in the chocolate, let cool on parchment paper.

Answer 2

Just the cherries (with stems, if possible) and chocolate is all you need. You can add a splash of a liqueur like Grand Marnier or something like that if you want. You can also add paraffin or beeswax to make the chocolate more "shiny" if you like...but it is really not necessary.
