Category   Desserts - Breads
Sub Category   None
Servings   42 to 48 Cookies
Preptime   30 Minutes

Ingredients
One 10 oz Jar Maraschino Cherries
1/2 c Butter - Softened
1 c Sugar
1/4 tsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Salt
1 Egg
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla
1/2 c Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1 1/2 c All-Purpose Flour
 
1 c Semisweet Chocolate Pieces
1/2 c Sweetened Condensed Milk or Low-Fat Sweetened Condensed Milk

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drain cherries, reserving juice. Halve any large cherries. In a medium mixing bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Beat until combined, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Beat in egg and vanilla until combined. Beat in cocoa powder and as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Stir in any remaining flour.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place balls about 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Press your thumb into the center of each ball. Place a cherry in each center.
For frosting, in a small saucepan combine chocolate pieces and sweetened condensed milk. Cook and stir over low heat until chocolate melts. Stir in 4 teaspoons reserved cherry juice (If necessary, frosting may be thinned with additional cherry juice). Spoon 1 teaspoon frosting over each cherry, spreading to cover.
Bake about 10 minutes or until edges are firm. Cool on cookie sheet 1 minute. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool.
