Cherry-studded chocolate chip cookies with chunks of creamy milk chocolate.
Ingredients:
  • 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup butter-flavored shortening
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 cups maraschino cherries, chopped
  • 2 cups milk chocolate chunks
Instructions:
  • Mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  • In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to blend brown sugar, shortening, and eggs until fully combined. Mix in milk, vanilla, and almond extract. Gradually add the flour mixture, beating well after each addition. Fold in cherries and chocolate chunks.
  • Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to a toasty 400°F (200°C).
  • Spoon generous dollops of dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  • Bake in the oven until the edges turn golden, for 8 to 10 minutes, rotating racks halfway through.
