Festive Chewy Cherry Cookies


A very tasty cookie i came up with to use up leftover cherries and coconut that is now a favorite in this house!!

Steps


Cream butter and sugar together until fluffy , then blend in juice from drained cherries and extract.
Mix in flour until combined then stir in coconut and cherries.
Shape the dough into rolls in plastic wrap and place in fridge for a few hours until firm.
Preheat oven to 380f.
Remove from fridge and slice into rounds and place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for about 10-12 minutes.
I did mine convection at 360 for about 10 minutes also.
Bake until edges are slightly brown.

Ingredients


butter, sugar, brown sugar, cherry juice, orange extract, all-purpose flour, maraschino cherry, flaked coconut
