Made these the other night . I messed them up but were still ok. Next time I will use dried cherries vs. Wet maraschino cherries and less nuts.

This recipe was to die for!! Ive incorporates dark chocolate chips instead of the chunks and used marschino cherries (drained, rinsed, chopped, and blotted dry with paper towels) in the dough. These came out wonderful and were still moist and delicious the next day!! This will definitely become a regular in my home especially around the holidays!! Yum!!!!!!
