Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment to beat 1 cup softened salted butter and 1 ½ cups sugar at medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually beat in ⅓ cup maraschino cherry juice and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder. Slowly beat the flour mixture into the sugar mixture. Stir in 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut, ¾ cup chopped maraschino cherries, and ½ cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips by hand.
- Scoop the dough into balls that are about 1 ¼-inches and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between them. Use the handle of a wooden spoon or the back of a teaspoon to make an indent in each ball of dough.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes or until the edges are set and the bottoms are lightly browned. Cool completely.
- Fill each cookie with a scant teaspoon from the 1 cup vanilla frosting,. Top with 48 maraschino cherries with stems,.
- Make a chocolate drizzle by adding 1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon shortening to a small microwave-safe bowl. Melt in 30-second increments, stirring between each increment, until smooth. Drizzle over the cookies.
