Time 59m

Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 2/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/3 cups packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup dried cherries
3/4 cup raisins

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375°; line 2 sturdy cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
Sift the flour, cocoa, and baking soda into a bowl; set aside.
In a bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar, vanilla, and salt with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and scrape the bowl well.
Add the dry ingredients and mix just until no streaks remain.
Fold in the chocolate chips, dried cherries, and raisins by hand.
Drop the dough by heaping tablespoonfuls at least 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 14 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through the baking time.
Remove the cookies from the oven while they still look a little underdone; they will crisp up when they set.
Let cool on the pans for a few minutes to firm up slightly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Cha-Cha-Cha Cherry Dump Cake Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by á-24734

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 Pkg. (12 oz. each) Frozen Cherries, thawed and drained
1 Pkg. (4 serving size) Cherry Gelatin
1 Box White Cake Mix
1/2 Cup Butter, cut into thin slices
1 Cup Chopped Walnuts
1/4 Cup Water

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9" square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Spread cherries in prepared pan; sprinkle with gelatin. Top with cake mix, spreading evenly. Top with butter in single layer, covering cake mix as much as possible. Sprinkle with walnuts. Drizzle water over top. Bake 50-60 minutes or until toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool at least 15 minutes before serving.

Tips:

To make the cherry filling, use fresh, ripe cherries. If you are using frozen cherries, thaw them before using.
Be sure to pit the cherries before using them. You can use a cherry pitter or a paring knife to do this.
Do not overcook the cherries. Cook them just until they are softened and the juices are released.
For the crust, use a combination of all-purpose flour and almond flour. This will give the crust a crisp, flaky texture.
Do not overwork the dough. Mix it just until it comes together.
Blind bake the pie crust before adding the filling. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help to set the crust.
Reduce the oven temperature and continue baking until the filling is bubbly.
Let the pie cool completely before serving.
