Instructions

Working time approx. 40 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 12 minutes; Total time approx. 52 minutes

delicious with white chocolate – for about 25 pieces

Preheat oven to 175°C. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Melt the chocolate in the microwave on low heat or in a bowl over a double boiler. Halve or quarter the cherries, depending on their size (I quartered them). Beat the butter, sugar, and egg with a hand mixer until light and fluffy, then stir in the flour and melted chocolate alternately. Finally, stir in the chopped cherries with a spoon, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter. Use a tablespoon to place small mounds of batter onto the parchment paper (12 per sheet), keeping them spaced apart as they will spread. Bake in the center of the hot oven for about 12 minutes, until the edges are light brown. Remove from the oven and carefully slide the cookies onto a wire rack, using the parchment paper. The cookies will break easily while still warm. Let cool and enjoy. Dried cranberries can be used as an alternative to the cherries.
