Festive Chewy Cherry Cookies

• 1 cup butter
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons leftover cherry juice
• 1 teaspoon orange extract (or vanilla, whatever you prefer)
• 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup chopped drained maraschino cherry
• 1 1/4 cups flaked coconut

1. Cream butter and sugar together until fluffy, then blend in juice from drained cherries and extract.
2. Mix in flour until combined then stir in coconut and cherries.
3. Shape the dough into rolls in plastic wrap(this will be very sticky!) and place in fridge for a few hours until firm (or freeze until needed).
4. Preheat oven to 380u0b0F
5. remove from fridge and slice into rounds and place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for about 10-12 minutes.
6. I did mine convection at 360 for about 10 minutes also.
7. Bake until edges are slightly brown.
