CABERNET AND CHERRY CHOCOLATE DROP COOKIES
Steps:
- marinate about 30 minutes. Drain cherries (and drink the wine...). In In a small bowl place the cherries and wine. Microwave 45 seconds and then let sit and another bowl melt the baking bar in a small bowl by microwaving it about 45 seconds and stirring. If chocolate is still lumpy, then microwave again for about 10-15 seconds, then stir. If still lumpy, repeat until smooth. Let chocolate sit to cool to room temperature. In a large bowl cream together the chocolate, oil and sugar. One at a time, beat in the eggs and then add in the vanilla extract. In another bowl mix together the baking powder, flour and the salt. Add the creamed chocolate mixture to the dry ingredients and mix all together. Fold in the drained "cabernet cherries," the chocolate chips and the pecan pieces. Roll the dough into 1" balls and then roll these lightly into powdered sugar to coat all sides. (If dough is too sticky to roll easily, refrigerate it about 30 minutes to an hour.) Place on cookie sheet, spacing cookies 2 inches apart. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will taste. Look for a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The cookies should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help the flavors to develop and the cookies to set.
Conclusion:
These Cabernet and Cherry Chocolate Drop Cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They are rich, chocolatey, and have a hint of cherry flavor. They are also easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you are looking for a delicious and festive cookie, give this recipe a try!
