1 cup butter or margarine, softened

2 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 oz unsweetened baking chocolate, melted, cooled
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons finely chopped drained maraschino cherries
2 tablespoons poppy seed

  • In medium bowl, beat butter, sugar, vanilla and egg with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Stir in flour and salt until dough forms.

I had a hard time getting the cookies to bake evenly. Some of them were overcooked while others were still raw.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate and peanut butter, but I thought I'd give these cookies a try. I'm glad I did! They're really good. The chocolate and peanut butter flavors are perfectly balanced.
