Cherry Cordial Chocolate Cookies could be your new favorite twist on a classic holiday treat. These remind me of being a child at Christmas time and I hope you enjoy them, too!
There are few things that spark the memories from my childhood at Christmastime. The smell of tinsel…even though I don’t think they sell it anymore. Colored tree lights. They were always so magical to me. Lastly is the sweet taste of Cherry Cordial Chocolates.
Christmas Candy
My mom would always buy a box as soon as they were sold on the shelves of our local grocery store. She would pull out the box as soon as we got home and set it on the counter. It was an unspoken tradition that we would wait until our Christmas tree was up and beautifully decorated.
Once it was dark outside we would plug in the colored lights and crack open the box of chocolates. I used to eat off the bottom first then pop the entire thing in my mouth. It may be the same way I still eat them today!
When I was thinking of a new cookie I wanted to create for Christmastime, these instantly came to mind! I knew they had to be easy, but taste incredible. These are just that!
I simply use a cake mix as the base for the chocolate cookies and they couldn’t taste more incredible! You place the cherry cordial chocolate right as they come out of the oven and they set into the cookie as they cool.
