About five years ago I discovered cherry-flavored morsels. I don’t like artificially cherry-flavored candy, but I had to buy these just to see how they tasted. I baked a batch of cherry chip cookies and they were amazing! I’ve been baking with them ever since. Sometimes it’s hard to find cherry chips in the stores, so when I find them I buy at least three bags at a time. This time I wanted to try something a little different, but just as amazing Enjoy!

These look fantastic! I’ve never seen cherry chips before, but I’m gonna have to find them. I love everything cherry! Pinning!
Hi, Sheena! You can now find them in Wal-Mart.
Those look so yummy! I am not a huge cherry flavor fan, so I’d probably use a different kind of chips for this. The filling sounds so good.
This would be best paired with hot chocolate or some lemonade or tea, perfect for afternoon get-togethers. I love that it’s also easy-to-prepare. The cherry-flavored baking morsels make a good twist to the usual treats we have at home.
This look so tempting I look sweets and you made it from scratch this is even better. I have to try cheery chips next time . Thanks for sharing.
