    Title: Chocolate-Covered Cherry Cookies
    Categories: Cookies, Chocolate, Fruits
    Yield: 48 servings

    1/2 c Butter, softened
    1 c Sugar
    1 lg Egg; room temp
    1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract
    1 1/2 c A-P flour
    1/2 c Baking cocoa
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Baking powder
    1/4 ts Baking soda
    48 Maraschino cherries; blotted
    - dry

    MMMMM--------------------------FROSTING-------------------------------
    1 c Semisweet chocolate chips
    1/2 c Sweetened condensed milk
    3 ts Maraschino cherry juice

    Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC

    In a bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and
    fluffy, 5-7 minutes; beat in egg and vanilla. Combine
    the dry ingredients; gradually add to creamed mixture
    (batter will be very firm). Shape into forty-eight 1-in.
    balls and place on ungreased baking sheets. Push 1
    cherry halfway into each ball.

    For frosting, melt chocolate chips in milk in a small
    saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from
    the heat; add cherry juice and stir until smooth.

    Bake for 10-12 minutes. Spoon 1 teaspoon frosting over
    each cherry while the cookie is still warm. Cool on wire
    racks.
