Cherry Chunk Cookies

---

I got this from a recipe group i'm in. Haven't made it yet & wanted to save it here. It was getting raves in the group. Also, a lot of people were saying that they substituted dried sweetened cranberries for the cherries. Where it calls for milk chocolate, i plan to sub semi-sweet because it sounds as if it may be too sweet with white & milk chocolate imho
