I’m OBSESSED with maraschino cherries. I can eat an entire, HUGE jar of them in one setting… and I have! Seriously, this size! (I may have a problem...) So, this recipe was a natural creation for me. It is also one of my absolute favorites!!!

How to Make Cherry Chocolate Chip Cookies

The recipe is incredibly EASY, fast, and budget-friendly.

These Cherry Chocolate Chip Cookies are DELICIOUS. They are also INCREDIBLY soft. SO soft. AND fluffy. I was pleasantly surprised by the texture and immediately wanted more. 

I was also intrigued and wanted to know how I did it. So, I did some research. I read that the cherry juice was the culprit!

I only added ½ teaspoon of cherry juice from the jar, but it was enough to change the texture… in a completely positive, amazing way. 

These seriously are the best cookies!
