unsalted butter, softened (1/4 cup)

tsp vanilla extract

pink gel food coloring

all purpose flour

tsp baking soda

tsp salt

semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus extra for garnish)

Preheat the oven to 350º F.

In a mixing bowl beat the butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer for 1 minute, or until combined. Add in the egg and extracts, beat again.

Add in a small amount of pink gel food coloring and mix.

In separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing by hand with a spatula.

Add in the finely chopped maraschino cherries and chocolate chips, mix by hand until combined. The batter will be thick.

Use a cookie scoop to drop dough balls onto a silicone lined baking sheet. Press additional cherries and chocolate chips into the outside of the dough balls.

Bake for 14-16 minutes - be sure not to over bake or the cookies will loose their pink color and turn brown.

Allow the cookies to cool to the touch on the baking sheet (about 15 minutes) then move them to a cooling rack.

Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 15x10 baking pan with a bit of butter. Set aside.

Recipe Tin Project: Ann Roger's Christmas Cookies

(2 sticks) butter

chopped nuts

cherries

Recipe Tin Project: Ann Roger&#8217;s Christmas Cookies

Cream together butter and powdered sugar, then mix in egg and vanilla thoroughly.

On low, mix in flour, chopped nuts, and candied cherries until just combined.

Roll dough into two logs, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for 1 hour.

When ready to bake, preheat oven to 325°F.

Slice dough into rounds about 1/4-inch thick, place on a baking sheet, and bake until edges have set and cookies are just barely golden, 13-15 minutes. Enjoy!

Cherry Shortbread Cookies

maraschino cherries (finely chopped and dried)

salted butter (softened)

tsp almond extract

almonds (divided use)

Drain the maraschino cherries. Use a sharp knife to finely chop, then spread on doubled paper towels to dry. (Do this around 45-60 minutes prior to making the dough.)

In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar. Beat on medium-high speed to 2 minutes then add the vanilla extract and almond extract. Beat for another 2 minutes.

With the mixer on medium-low speed, add the flour mixture in thirds. Stop and scrap the bowl to incorporate fully.

Once all of the flour has been added, add 1/4 cup sliced almonds. Mix with the mixer until incorporated, some will break, this is what we want!

Now that the dough has formed, add the maraschino cherries. Stir in by hand or using the mixer on low speed just until they&#39;re evenly distributed. The dough will have a pink hue.

Transfer the dough to a large sheet of plastic wrap. Form into an even 12-inch to 14-inch log. Twist the ends to seal, then pop into the fridge to chill for at least 2-4 hours or until firm. (Overnight is fine!)

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.

Remove the cookie dough from the fridge. Use a sharp knife to slice into 1/2-inch  to 3/4-inch thick slices. Sprinkle the tops with the remaining sliced almonds.

Bake for 23-25 minutes or just until lightly golden brown around the edges.

Cool on the pan for 3 minutes then remove to a wire rack to completely cool.

Can’t wait to try these.  If I’m making these for someone who doesn’t like the flavor of Almond extract would you recommend increasing the vanilla extract to 1 1/2 tsp or just use the 1 tsp amount listed in the recipe?

<br>A tangy burst of cherry paired with the rich, almond-infused flavor of amaretto creates a festive twist on a classic buttery cookie 

Cherry Amaretto Checkerboard Cookies

unsalted butter, softened (113 grams)

sugar (100 grams)

egg yolk (about 15 grams)

Tablespoon amaretto

all-purpose flour (180 grams)

Tablespoons freeze-dried cherries,

red food coloring (optional)

Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This will take 1-2 minutes.

Beat in the egg yolk, almond extract, and amaretto.

Slowly fold in the remaining ingredients except for the cherry powder.*If you live in a less humid climate than I do, your dough may be more dry. If your dough is too crumbly, simply at 1-2 Tablespoons of water or milk until it is soft and pliable.

Divide the dough into two equal pieces and set one aside.

To one half of the dough mix in the cherry powder and red food coloring.

Form the dough into two equal size square logs, 2x2 inches tall. Make sure that your logs are as close in size as you can make them.

Chill the dough over night.

Cut each log into nine equal pieces. Start by cutting each log in thirds and then cut each third into thirds. Keep the pieces in order.

Now you will create two new logs from your original two logs. Lay one strip of cherry, one strip of amaretto, then another strip of cherry. Brush a little water between the pieces and gently press them together. Top the three strips with alternating colors, and repeat for the last layer, brushing water between the strips before gently pressing them together.

Repeat this with the alternating colors for the second log.

Return the dough to the refrigerator for 30 minutes and preheat an oven to 350°F.

Slice the cookies into 1/4 inch pieces.

Bake for 8-10 minutes. Enjoy!
