Chewy Cherry Almond With White Chocolate Cookies

"These cherry almond cookies are simply divine! They are chewy and brimming with almond flavor from the addition of almond extract, toasted ground almonds, and Amaretto liqueur. Chopped maraschino cherries and maraschino cherry juice are both added for loads of fresh cherry flavor and that beautiful color. Add white chocolate chips to the cookie dough and/or top the cookies with a white chocolate drizzle for the perfect cookies. Yields 18 cookies. The cookie dough does require chilling for at least a couple of hours, so plan ahead when making these. You can prepare the dough up to 5 days in advance and store in the fridge - ideal for busy holiday time."
