    From Cooking Light: (ONLY 80 CALORIES!)

    Chewy Chocolate-Cherry Cookies

    The tartness of the cherries contrasts with the cocoa and semisweet chocolate chips.

    Yield: 30 cookies (serving size: 1 cookie)

    Ingredients:
    1 cup all-purpose flour (about 4 1/2 ounces)
    1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 cup sugar
    1/3 cup butter, softened
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 large egg
    2/3 cup dried tart cherries
    3 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
    Cooking spray

    Preparation:
    Preheat oven to 350°.

    Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, stirring with a whisk. Place sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed until well blended. Add vanilla and egg; beat well. With mixer on low speed, gradually add flour mixture. Beat just until combined. Fold in cherries and chocolate chips.

    Drop by tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 12 minutes or just until set. Remove from oven; cool on pans 5 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
