Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1-1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
48 maraschino cherries , blotted dry
frosting:
1 cup (6 oz) semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 to 3 tsp maraschino cherry juice

Directions:

In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar until fluffy; beat in egg and vanilla. Combine the dry ingredients; gradually add to creamed mixture (batter will be very firm). Shape into 48 balls, about 1 in. round, and place on ungreased baking sheets. Push one cherry halfway into each ball.
For frosting, melt chocolate chips in milk in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; add cherry juice and stir until smooth. Spoon 1 teaspoon of frosting over each cherry (the frosting will spread over cookie during baking).
Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Cool on wire racks. Yield: 4 dozen.
