How to Make Yummy Double Chocolate Cherry Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) devil's food cake mix, 1/2 cup milk (any kind), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until just combined.
  4. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes, or until the dough is smooth.
  5. Lightly oil your hands. Roll dough into 1-inch balls.
  6. Place dough balls 2 1/2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  7. Gently flatten each ball slightly and top with one fresh cherry half in the center.
  8. Bake for 8-9 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops begin to crack.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
  10. While cookies cool, melt 6 oz white chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  11. Drizzle melted white chocolate over the cooled cookies using a spoon or piping bag, creating a decorative pattern.
  12. Allow the melted chocolate to set completely before serving.
