We just finished baking some chocolate
M&M cookies then we did the following cherry-chocolate chip cookies.
They are really good too! :-) Lauren holds the mixer and
stirs also, I measure and she pours the ingredients in the bowl. She
thinks she has really done something! :-) Off to the park now!
You'll need:
- 1 c. chopped maraschino cherries, well
drained
- 3/4 c. (1 1/2 sticks) butter, softened
- 1/2 c. granulated sugar
- 1/2 c. brown sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 egg
- 2 c. flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 c. miniature semi-sweet chocolate
chips
- 1/2 c. chopped pecans
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put
chopped cherries on paper towel, and pat dry. Stir butter, sugars,
vanilla and egg in large bowl until mixed. Stir in flour and
baking soda. Stir in cherries, chocolate chips, and nuts. Drop
dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased
cookie
sheet. Bake 12-15 minutes or until light brown. Cool 1
minute before taking cookies off cookie sheet. Makes about 2 dozen
cookies. |
