Cherry Butter Cookies
Winter is a great time for baking. I love the warmth of a kitchen with the smell of fresh-baked cookies coming from the oven, with the beauty of snow on the ground outside the window. This is a great recipe for any occasion. These soft and chewy Cherry Butter Cookies are so easy to make and sure to please everyone.

½ tsp vanilla extract
½ cup Cherry Stop Old-Fashioned Cherry Butter
1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Line two baking sheets with parchment.
3. Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
4. In mixer bowl, beat butter on medium speed until creamy and smooth.
5. Add sugar and beat for one minute.
6. Add the egg and beat for 2 minutes more. The mixture will be satiny.
7. Add the milk and vanilla and beat just to combine.
**Don’t be concerned if mixture looks curdled, it will even out shortly.
8. Reduce mixer speed to low, add Cherry Butter and beat for 1 minute.
9. Still on low speed, add the dry ingredients and mix only until incorporated.
10. Spoon by rounded teaspoonfuls into a dish of granulated sugar.
11. Toss to coat and place on baking sheet, leaving about an inch between each.
12. Bake for 10-12 minutes, rotating at midway point.
**When done, the cookies will be only just firm, fairly pale and browned around the edges.
13. Pull the sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to rest for 1 minute, then carefully transfer them to racks to cool to room temperature.
14. Enjoy!
