CHOCOLATE CHERRY TEA COOKIES
These are very buttery, melt in your mouth cherry-chocolate cookie. They remind me of the Snowballs that I make at Christmas time for my husband. They are certainly dressed for the occasion. This recipe came from a small Christmas cookie magazine by Betty Crocker.

Steps:
- Drain cherries before chopping. I use a small chopper like the one for nuts to chop them up. It makes it easier. Drain off excess juice once again after chopping.
- Heat oven to 400 F. IN large bowl, beat butter with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Gradually beat in 1/2 cup powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in almond extract. In medium bowl, mix flour and salt. On low speed, beat flour mixture into butter mixture until well blended. Stir in cherries.
- Shape dough into 1-inch balls & place on parchment paper to bake.
- Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until edges just begin to brown. Cool slightly. Measure 1/2 cup powdered sugar into small bowl. Roll each cookie in powdered sugar. Place on cooling rack to cool completely.
- Melt chocolate chips in microwave for 30 seconds. Stir and heat for another 30 seconds. Stir and then use a fork to drizzle chocolate on top of cookies.
