Oh my friends, this is a GREAT recipe if you are looking for a beautiful cookie that is also tasty! If you want to step outside the box for Christmas cookies, this would be a great one!
What I used:
1/2 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 can cherry pie filling
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
Beat the butter and sugar together in a bowl. Add egg and vanilla and beat well. Add the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder and stir until smooth. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls about the size of a walnut (larger if desired). Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Press center of each ball with thumb.
Spoon one cherry from can of pie filling into indentation in cookie. Take your chocolate chips and melt down. Add a little of the pie filling mixture (excluding cherries) and add to chocolate. Mix well.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of mixture over each cherry and spread to cover cherry.
Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes.
