Almond Glazed Cherry Chip Sugar Cookies Recipes

CHERRY ALMOND AMISH SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• As noted above, drain the maraschino cherries, reserving the juice (!), finely mince the cherries, and then pat/squeeze VERY dry. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, oil, and sugars until combined.
• Beat in eggs, almond extract, cherry extract, and minced cherries.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
• Gradually add flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating until just combined after each addition. Do not overmix.
• Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
• Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto baking sheets.
• Bake at 375 for 8-11 minutes, or until edges and bottoms are lightly browned.
• Remove to wire racks to cool.
• Whisk together butter, maraschino cherry juice, and extracts.
• Stir in 4 cups powdered sugar, mixing until smooth.
• Add additional maraschino cherry juice or powdered sugar, as needed, to achieve a thick, but spreadable consistency. It should be thicker than a glaze, and it shouldn't run off the cookie, but should be easily spreadable.
• Frost cookies, sprinkle with slivered almonds, decorate with additional sprinkles, if desired, and allow to set.
