Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
- If you don't have unsweetened coconut, you can use sweetened coconut and reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe by 1/4 cup.
- Be sure to drain the cherries well before using them. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming too wet.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them. This will help them to firm up and prevent them from sticking together.
Conclusion:
These chocolate coconut cherry cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try!
