My brother loved these cookies as a child. (Still does!) Actually they are a variation of the familiar Toll-House Cookies, but the cherries make them Christmas-pretty! This recipe comes from Pillsbury. Remember when they would include a little pamphlet of cookie recipes in bags of flour at Christmas?
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, at room temperature
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 unbeaten egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips (6-ounce package)
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup drained chopped maraschino cherry
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Reserve.
3. Cream the softened butter. Gradually add the brown and granulated sugars. Blend in the egg and vanilla. Beat well. Add the dry ingredients gradually, blending well.
4. Stir in the chocolate morsels, pecans and cherries. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets. Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown.
