White and dark chocolate cherry cookies

Ingredients

• 1 stick butter, softened
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 tbp milk
• 1 cup dried cherries
• 1 cup white-chocolate chunks
• 1 cup dark-chocolate chunks

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until just combined. Set aside.
Stir together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add milk to the butter mixture and then add the flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Batter should be quite stiff.
In another bowl, combine cherries and chocolate chunks, then add to batter, stirring only to blend. Mold into balls and set on greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 11-13 minutes. Eat.

Thoughts: Pretty good. The original recipe called for macadamia nuts, so I'm glad we dispensed with those. Super good. Dan wasn't expecting to like them, but he did. Once they've cooled a little, they get more crunchy on the outside.
