CHERRY NUT BALLS
I love maraschino cherries and coconut. These are so easy that the kids can prepare them and they are great to have in the fridge for a pop in the mouth snack! We usually double this and use a cookie scoop do depending on how big (or small) you make them is how many you will get. Cooking time is chilling time.

Important tips for making Chewy Cherry Nut Ball Cookies
- Opt for fresh ingredients: You should always aim to use the freshest components available for the best results. Stale ingredients may affect the final product's texture and taste.
- Don't overwork the batter: Overworked batter can result in tough cookies. Stir until the ingredients are just combined, and avoid over-beating the butter and sugar mixture.
- Chill the batter before shaping: Chilling the batter helps the cookies hold their form better and prevents them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: Bake the cookies at the right temperature according to your recipe. Baking them at a higher temperature may result in burnt cookies, while a lower temperature may yield undercooked cookies.
- Don't over-bake the cookies: Keep an eye on the cookies while they're in the over. Overbaking can lead to dry, crumbly cookies. They should be just set around the and slightly golden brown around the edge.
- Let the cookies cool before serving: Let the cookies cool on a wire before transferring them to a plate. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
