SMS: Double Chocolate Cherry Cookies



For the month of June I think my blog turned into a place for me to post SMS, TWD, Cookie Carnival, and Daring Bakers. I don't think that I posted much of anything else. It has been for a good cause... reuniting with Nathan and spending as much time together as a family. My blog (and visiting other blogs) has been neglected for the last month, but I hope to get back to posting on a regular basis by next week.

This week's SMS selection was Double Chocolate Cherry Cookies. They were really good cookies! I enjoyed them a lot, but what's not to love? Chocolate cookie with chocolate chunks and cherries. YUM! They did remind me a lot of the Chocolate Cherry cookies I made with Cookie Carnival back in February. I can't say which was better since it has been a couple of months, but this recipe is definately worth trying if you are in the mood for a chocolatey, fudgy cookie.

Thanks to Megan of My Baking Adventures for hosting this week. The recipe can be found at her blog. Also, check out the blogroll to see what the other SMS Bakers thought of the cookies!

  1. Cristine, your cookies look terrific!

    And if I had been separated from my husband, I'd be hanging out with him as much as possible too.

    I'm all for romance!

  19. Hi Cristine!

    Great job on the cookies! I'm glad you had a chance to bake them, although it's been a busy month. I think it's wonderful that you've been able to spend some quality time with your family, even if it means a few less posts. But I'm glad that your blog will be back in full swing soon- I'm a new reader, but already a fan!

    I'd love for you to stop by my site if you have a chance to take a look at my cookies too! Have a wonderful rest of your week and I hope to talk again after we make the next SMS recipe :)

    -Joy
