INGREDIENTS FOR COOKIES
INGREDIENTS FOR TOPPING
Directions
In a large bowl stir melted butter with brown and white sugar until well combined.
Stir in whisked egg, vanilla essence and cherry paste.
Add the flour and baking powder and stir well until a dough forms. Do not overwork the dough.
Add the dried cherries, fresh cherries, pistachios and chocolate chips then fold through.
Cover the bowl and put it in the fridge for 30 minutes until the dough is cool.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius using the top and bottom element mode.
Line 2 trays with baking paper. Scoop out tablespoon sized lumps of dough onto the lined trays with a space around 5cm between each. You should be able to get at least 25 portions out of the dough.
Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly golden.
Carefully transfer cookies to a cooling rack when they have solidified enough to be moved then allow to fully cool.
Melt the chocolate for the topping in the microwave then drizzle it all over the cookies using a spoon.
While it is still melted sprinkle the cookies with chopped pistachios then leave to set.
