My husband was at a client's house and she served these to him. He loved them and asked her for the recipe so I could make them. Neither of us like dates or cherries, but we love these cookies.

- Place on greased baking sheet or parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Top each cookie with 1/4 of a cherry, if desired.

[email protected]These cookies were really easy to make. I didn't have any white chocolate chips, so I used semi-sweet chocolate chips instead. They turned out great!

[email protected]These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still think they're pretty good. I'll probably try using dark chocolate chips next time.
