Chocolate Cherry Cookies Recipe

Updated February 09, 2023 It is February and I am SUPER excited because I LOVE February. February is my birthday month, the Super Bowl, Valentine’s Day, and chocolate lovers month. There is a lot to celebrate and I am going to celebrate ALL month! I am kicking off the celebration with these Chocolate Cherry Cookies. They are decadent and one of my new favorite cookies. Chocolate and cherries are a match made in heaven, especially in these cookies. The combo is perfection! I use dried cherries in these cookies. You can find dried cherries at just about every grocery store. Look by the raisins or in the bulk bin section, if your store has one. I buy them in bulk at Smith’s. My boys love snacking on them so I have to hide them if I want to bake cookies. I have my own secret stash. The chocolate cookies are soft, chewy, and filled with chocolate chunks and dried cherries. The contrast of tart cherries with the sweetness of cocoa and chocolate chunks is perfection. The cookies are SO good right out of the oven when the dark chocolate chunks are oozing out of the cookies. Make sure you have a glass of cold milk close by because you are going to need it to wash down your cookie…or cookies. I can never stop at one! Add Chocolate Cherry Cookies to your February baking list! They are a great treat for the Super Bowl, Valentine’s Day, or my birthday, which is on Sunday. You can celebrate with me by eating cookies:) Or you can just bake and eat them ALL month because it is chocolate lovers month. See, February is the BEST month! Enjoy!
