These dairy and egg-free cookies have been a staple at my house recently! Check out the recipe below for a sweet treat, or screenshot the recipe card attached. It would also be cute printed and framed or hung on the fridge in your kitchen.

Hope you enjoy!

Maraschino Cherry Cookies

Ingredients:

• 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup sugar, divided
• 1 cup cold butter, cubed (I use a DF butter alternative!)
• 1/2 cup finely chopped maraschino cherries
• 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
• A splash of extra cherry juice if you want it

Ingredients:

1. In a large bowl, combine flour and 1/2 cup sugar; cut in butter until crumbly. Knead in cherries and extract until dough forms a ball.
2. Shape into 3/4-in. balls. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Flatten slightly with a glass dipped in remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Bake at 325° for 15-20 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
