I thought I'd post the recipe here for some DAMN good cookies. I made these like 3x over the Xmas holidays, they are soooooooooooo good.


Cocoa Cherry Drop Cookies

(1 stick)plus 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons HERSHEY'S Cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped maraschino cherries, well drained
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Walnut pieces(optional)

1. Heat oven to 350°F.

2. Beat butter and sugar in large bowl until light and fluffy; beat in egg and vanilla. Stir together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; stir into butter mixture. Stir in cherries and chopped walnuts. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheet. Press walnut piece onto each cookie, if desired.

3. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. About 3 dozen cookies.
