Chocolate covered cherries are a particular favorite around these parts. When inspiration struck to do a Valentine’s themed cookie, I had a jar of Maraschinos hanging out and some mini chocolate chips. Too, I’m a shortbread fanatic because the measurements are easy to memorize. 1 part sugar, 2 parts butter, 3 parts flour! Put it all together and you have Chocolate Cherry Shortbread Cookies.
Think I can make them in 2 minutes? Well, yes, if there’s a fast-forward button involved…
Chocolate Cherry Shortbread Cookies
The white chocolate I use is Ghiradelli White Chocolate Melting Wafters. They melt beautifully in the microwave and set up quickly so that the heart decorations don’t smear. That makes them easy to package up to give to your your sweetheart.
