After trying a few recipe variations with chocolate and cherries, this one came out on top! It has so many ways to adapt it, I think it’s probably pretty much perfect. The one thing I have to stress is when you take the cookies out of the oven, leave them to sit on the baking tray for at least 5/6 mins – don’t touch them – after that, you can use a wide palette knife to gently move them to a wire tray to fully cool. This will be the difference between having a batch of cookies and a batch of cookie pieces!
I used baking parchment on the baking trays to prevent sticking and a heaped teaspoon for sizing them. You will get a decent size cookie from this, bigger than shop bought and a bit smaller than those large Smarties cookies.
