If you don't like cherries, substitue well-drained pineapple tidbits, using the juice to thin the frosting. You can also use pecan halves or macadamia nuts and thin the frosting with cold coffee or water. Otherwise, just top with the chocolate and skip the fruit and nuts,

Ingredients:
20 Ounce(wt)s cherries, marachino
|
Directions:
Melt butter and mix in sugar. Let mixture cool and add eggs. Mix it thoroughly and then add baking powder, baking soda, salt, vanilla and cocoa powder, stirring after each addition. Add flour and mix well (dough will be stiff and a bit crumbly.)
Drain cherries and remove any stems, reserving juice.
Pat dough into walnut-sized balls with your fingers ( you can use a disher to measure). Place on a greased cookie sheet, 12 to a standard sheet. Press down in the center with your thumb to make a deep indentation. Place one cherry on each indentation.
In a saucepan over simmering water (double boiler), combine the chocolate chips and milk. Heat on low until the chips are melted. (You can also do this in the microwave, but you may have to keep reheating to keep the mixture from hardening.)
Add approximately 2 tablespoons of the reserved cherry juice and stir until it is a thick sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add more juice in small increments. (Test it with a spoon. If it doesn't glob off, it is too thick.)
Spoon the sauce over the center of each cookie, just enough to cover each cherry. Make sure it doesn't drip down the sides.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on the cookie sheet for 2 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to finish cooling. |
