cherry white chocolate pudding cookies.

I'm usually not a cherry-flavored dessert person (especially when maraschino cherries are involved). Don't get my wrong, I LOVE eating cherries in fresh fruit form. I just don't like it in my dessert, however, I will admit there are a couple cherry desserts I do enjoy. 

But these cookies, oh these cookies, are a game-changer for me. Ok, maybe I can't go that far... They are an exception to my (mostly) no-cherry-dessert-rule. 

They are soft, sweet, and PINK! 

What are you waiting for?
