These are a pretty cookie. the cherry chocolate flavor is always popular at my house.. I make them every Christmas, but they are good anytime.. I got the recipe from a Pillsbury Holiday pamphlet. Ingredients:
1 cup powdered sugar |
1 cup butter |
2 teasp. maraschino cherry juice |
1/2 teasp. almond extract |
few drops red food coloring |
2 1/4 cups flour |
1/2 teasp salt |
1/2 cup maraschino cherries, drained and chopped |
approx 48 extra large chocolate chips or 48 chocolate kisses |
depending on which you choose: one is semi-sweet and the other is milk chocolate. this will give you 2 different tastes... |
Directions:
1. combine sugar, butter, cherry juice, almond extract, and the food coloring. blend well
2. lightly spoon flour into measuring cup. mix in the salt
3. mix flour mixture with the butter mixture
4. add cherries
