DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHERRY DROPS
Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 2. On waxed paper, combine flour, cocoa, and salt. 3. In large bowl, with mixer at medium speed, beat butter and sugar until creamy, occasionally scraping bowl with rubber spatula. Beat in corn syrup, vanilla, and egg until well mixed. At low speed, gradually add flour mixture; beat just until blended, occasionally scraping bowl. With spoon, stir in chocolate chunks and cherries. 4. Drop cookies by rounded measuring teaspoons, 2 inches apart, onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake cookies 10 to 11 minutes or until tops are just firm. Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough.
Tips:
- Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
- Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of these cookies, so it's important to use a good quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of. Semi-sweet or dark chocolate works well.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving: The cookies will be easier to handle and will taste better once they have cooled completely.
Conclusion:
These chocolate cherry drop cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture, rich chocolate flavor, and sweet cherry filling, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these chocolate cherry drop cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
