Last night, I made the "Chewy Chocolate-Cherry Cookies", using the recipe I found at "My Recipes". Site references "Cooking Light" magazine as the source of this recipe. I do like "Cooking Light" and over the years, have discovered a lot of favorites.I overbaked the first batch by a few minutes - I forgot about them!. But, they did not burn. They are just a little crunchier than I usually like. They still taste wonderful. The second batch, I baked for the prescribed 12 minutes and they were better, although I like them softer still. I can try baking for 10 minutes next time. It may also be because as a lighter version of cookie, there is just not enough butter in the dough to make a chewier cookie. No matter, I do like the taste.
The only modification I made was to substitute dried cherries with "Craisins" - dried cranberries (orange flavor). Wonderful! Oh, yeah, I indulged in an extra tablespoon of chocolate chips because I simply cannot resist being a little bad...
Just to illustrate my baking adventure and my continuing practice of learning to photograph food:
