Stir in the dried cherries, pour into prepared pan and spread out evenly. Allow to cool slightly and then cover with plastic wrap. Chill in the fridge until firm, about 1 hour. Dollop the top with the whipped topping and then swirl around with a spoon. Top with the halved cherries and sprinkle with the chocolate.
