Zubereitung von Maraschino Chocolate Thumbprint Cookies
- Drain a jar (approximately 10-12 ounces) of maraschino cherries, reserving 1 teaspoon of the juice.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking powder. Mix until well combined.
- In a medium bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed for 3-4 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons milk. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Stir in the reserved 1 teaspoon of maraschino cherry juice.
- Allow the chocolate mixture to cool slightly.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll the cookie dough into 1-inch balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Gently press the center of each ball with your thumb to create a thumbprint indentation.
- Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cooled chocolate mixture into each thumbprint.
- Top each cookie with a maraschino cherry.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
