Steps:
- Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Beat the butter, sugars and egg until smooth, then mix in the flour, chocolates and cherry pieces and ½ tsp salt. Spoon onto non-stick baking sheets in large rough blobs - you'll get 20 out of this mix. Make sure they are well spaced as the cookies grow substantially as they bake. The raw dough can be frozen.
- Bake for 12-14 mins until just golden, but still quite pale and soft in the middle. If baking from frozen, give them a few mins more. Cool on the sheets for 5 mins, then lift onto racks with a fish slice and leave to cool completely.

CHOCOLATE-CHERRY GINGER COOKIES
These are the kind of cookies that make you want to cozy up under a warm blanket with a cup of tea and a good book. Packed full of warming spices, they have soft, chewy centers and crisp edges, and are punctuated by melty puddles of milk chocolate and tart dried cherries. They come together quickly too; no need to soften butter or chill dough. Feel free to substitute dark chocolate for a more deeply chocolaty cookie, but in either case, use chopped bar chocolate and not chips for the meltiest, tastiest bites. You can also substitute dried cranberries for the cherries.

CHOCOLATE-CHERRY SANDWICH COOKIES
I make these often at Christmastime, but they're a winner for summer parties, too. Chilling the cookies before you dip them into chocolate is important because it firms up the filling. -Amy Sauerwalt, Columbia, Maryland

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. If you can find them, use a mixture of dark, milk, and white chocolate chips.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the cherries by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely so that they distribute evenly throughout the dough.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. The centers should be slightly soft and gooey.
- Let the cookies cool completely before glazing them. This will help the glaze set properly.
- For a thicker glaze, add more powdered sugar. For a thinner glaze, add more milk.
Conclusion:
These chocolate cherry glazed cookie bites are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're also a great way to use up leftover cherries. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these cookie bites a try!
