Description

Heavenly Maraschino Cherry Chocolate Chip Cookies


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup maraschino cherries (drained and chopped)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
  3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Combine: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Add Chocolate Chips and Cherries: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped maraschino cherries until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Chill: For thicker cookies, cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. This step is optional but helps improve the texture.
  8. Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will continue to set as they cool.
  10. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
  11. Serve: Enjoy your Heavenly Maraschino Cherry Chocolate Chip Cookies warm or at room temperature!
