I added raisins for part of the cherries because I was short a few cherries. These are delicious. I doubled the recipe because we go through home made cookies well, like home made cookies lol!
Chocolate Cherry Oatmeal Cookies - These very eye catching cookies are crispy and chewy and make welcome additions to packed lunches. They freeze well too and would make a great addition to a Holiday baking list.
Servings 18 large cookies or 2 dozen smaller cookies
Ingredients
1 1/3 cups flour
1/2 cup large rolled oats
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup chocolate chips
3/4 cup glace cherry pieces I cut them in quarters
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray one cookie sheet with spray oil or line with parchment paper.
In a medium sized bowl whisk together flour, rolled oats, salt, and baking soda.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and combine thoroughly.
Add the flour mixture to the sweetened butter. Mix only enough to incorporate flour. Do not over mix. Fold in the chocolate chips and cherry pieces. Reserve a few of each to decorate the tops of the cookie dough before they go in the oven if you like. This really makes them look perfect.
Chill the dough thoroughly. Form cookies by dropping a rounded teaspoon of dough on the prepared cookie sheet two inches apart. Bake until light brown around the edges, about 12-15 minutes, depending on cookie size.
