How to Make Cherry Chocolate Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar in a large bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon cream of tartar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped maraschino cherries (or your favorite cherries).
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. Avoid overbaking!
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
