Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a small bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Roll into 1-in. balls.
  2. Press dough onto the bottoms and up the sides of well-greased miniature muffin cups. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool in pans on wire racks.
  3. In a small bowl, beat the almond paste, butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs. Spoon 2 teaspoonfuls into each cooled cup; top each with a cherry.
  4. Bake at 350° for 16-18 minutes or until lightly browned and filling is set. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
  5. In a microwave, melt chocolate and butter; stir until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Drizzle over cookies. Yield: 3 dozen.
