1/2 C cold water
2 C sugar
1/2 C hot water
grated rind & juice of 1 lemon & 1 orange

2 T cherry flavoring or juice from a bottle of maraschino cherries

Sprinkle gelatin over cold water and set aside. Mix sugar and hot water in a pot ever med until sugar is dissolved, then add gelatin and stir until mixed well. turn down heat and simmer 20 mins. Remove from heat and stir in the rest of the ingredients. Have someone hold a large strip of layered cheesecloth over a sprayed bread pan (you can also clip it to the edges, just make sure it's very secure and that the middle has some give). Slowly pour turkish through the cheesecloth into the pan. Pull the corners and sides of the cheesecloth together and use 2 spoons to gently squeeze out excess. Throw out cheesecloth and refrigerate turkish until firm. Cut into 9 strips, then each strip into 5 blocks. Cut each block in half and dip in melted chocolate.
