Ingredients

Chocolate Cherry Cookies:

2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

2 1/4 cups flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened

3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed

2/3 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

2 eggs

1/2 cup maraschino cherry juice

1 package (12 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chunks

1 cup dried cherries

Marshmallow Frosting:

2 tablespoons butter, softened

1/2 cup marshmallow creme

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup powdered sugar

2 tablespoons milk, more if needed

Directions

Cherry Chocolate Cookies:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a medium bowl, combine the cocoa powder, flour and baking soda and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars. Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Fold in the chocolate chunks and dried cherries.

Drop spoonfuls of dough about 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake for 9-11 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack.

Marshmallow Frosting:

In a small bowl, beat together butter, marshmallow creme and vanilla. Gradually add in sugar and beat until well blended. Stir in milk. If frosting is too thick, add more milk a tablespoon at a time.

Using a spoon, lightly drizzle frosting over cookies
