  I just tried these today and it was a great success. The tricky part was to lift them up from the baking sheet as I ran out of baking parchment but I saved them all. It's worth to wait a few minutes to lift them up otherwise they will break. I used extra chocolate instead of cherries. Super good

  Tried this today and love them!! They are really gooey in the middle. Some of the cookies were quite big as they spread so I made the second batch a bit smaller. I would definetely make these again.

  Delicious cookies, really really quick and easy to make. I made them with the 50g dark choc chunks and 100g milk choc chunks as had no cherries or white choc and they were yummy. Going to try them with white choc and cherries next time though as bet they will be great too. You really do need to keep a very close eye on them to make sure they don't over cook but still really tasty even when they are a bit crunchy!!

  Just made these with a 10yr old and they were very easy and quick to make. We put in marshmallows and cocoa rather than the choc and cherries - wow yummy!!!! Will definately make again.

  Absolutely delicious. I baked the cookies in 2 batches of 10 to take the spreading into account. Try making teaspoon sized dollops for "normal" sized cookies. I used a tablespoon and they came out the same size as the American cookies you get in Sainsbury's. YUM! Made them as a treat to go with coffee and everyone LOVED them. Defo making again.

  oh my god. These cookies are amazing, i left my dough mixture to chill in the fridge for an hour before cooking and i left out the cherries and just added 100g of each chocolate instead. I did end up making 1 big cookie but whilst it was hot i just cut it in to slices and it was fine. a bit of a chocolate ganache on top makes a nice addition as well.

  Lovely, and the good news is it makes more than it says! Only did relatively small blobs per cookie to avoid making one large slab as others reported - no more than a fairly small heaped dessert spoon size. Made about 26 but lost count as starting eating them! Only about 8 per tray, and the mixture won't spoil if you wait til the first batch are out of the oven and cooled on the tray for 5 mins before re-using the tray. I had 3 trays but one was old so used greaseproof paper on that to avoid sticking. Will make again, once also tried choc pecan cookie recipe!

  These were lovely. I just used white chocolate and cherries. They do spead but as long as you don't put too many on each sheet they'll be fine. I put just 6 on a sheet - I know it sounds time consuming but it's worth it.

  Easy to make, the most time consuming part is chopping the cherries. I baked my first tray in my fan oven at 170c but turned it down to 160c for the other one. Taking note of the other comments I made the cookies at a large marble size and got ten to a tray, have made 18 so far and still have dough left. They taste great, I added some chopped pistachios because they were leftover from something else.
