Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Whisk dry ingredients together
Beat oil, sugar, egg, and vanilla together, then fold in dry ingredients
Roll into 12 balls
Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes
Right when you pull out of the oven use the back of a tbsp measurer to indent the center of the cookie. Use a circular cookie cutter to swirl the cookie around within in to get that perfect circlular cookie shape
Allow to cool for a few minutes, then carefully move to cooling rack where they'll firm up a bit more
Make filling by adding cherries, lemon juice, and syrup together on stove. Don't mash the cherries, but rather stir gently
Mix arrowroot and water in a small bowl, then once warm, add to the cherry pot and stir. It will thicken into a gooey filling
Spoon the cherry filling onto the center of the cookies
Optionally, drizzle melted dark chocolate overtop
Enjoy!
