So easy! And with the combination of chocolate and tart dried cherries, these soft cookies are incredibly tasty, too. I used milk, dark, and white chocolate, but you can use whatever combination pleases you. The tart cherries add extra flavor and texture, making these cookies addictive little treats.<\/p>\n<p>Leave them plain and you&#8217;re done, but if you want to gussy them up a bit, shake them in powdered sugar while they&#8217;re still slightly warm. Or brush the tops with a thin glaze. You can also roll (or pat) the dough out on a generously floured surface and cut out simple shapes. Of course, I used a heart cutter because what could possibly be more perfect for Valentine&#8217;s Day than chocolate and cherry cookies?<\/p>\n<p><strong>POWDERED:<\/strong><img

You can also brush with a simple glaze made of powdered sugar and milk. For heart-shaped cookies, pat or roll dough a generous 1\/2-inch thick on floured surface and lift to baking sheet with a thin spatula.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERNutrition\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"endeasyrecipe\" style=\"display: none;\">3.5.3251<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>You won&#8217;t need step-by-step photos here, but I took a couple of random pictures for you.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7219\" style=\"width: 594px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7219\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7219\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Cherries.jpg?resize=584%2C390\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Cherries.jpg?resize=1024%2C683 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Cherries.jpg?resize=300%2C200 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Cherries.jpg?resize=768%2C512 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Cherries.jpg?resize=450%2C300 450w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Cherries.jpg?w=1168 1168w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Cherries.jpg?w=1752 1752w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7219\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dried cherries.
