Love your accent ( and your cookies). I was born and raised in Flatbush. Brooklyn N.Y. Made me homesick for the old days. Am 80 now. Been away for 53 yrs now. Live in Tx. God bless you and keep this going. .
My grandmother made these every Christmas and I'm a senior! I make these every Christmas and now my daughter does too. Gramma's gone and I never asked her where she learned this recipe, but your video has brought back good memories of her. Thanks!
Love this recipe! 😋 Been doing it for years. Last year I decided to change it up and used one tsp of coconut, as well as vanilla. I also melted white chocolate for the glaze. Total game changer, and I will be doing it that way this year! Oh and at the end I put green and red sprinkles since I make these for Christmas! ❤️
My grandma would make chocolate cherries and coconut cherries during the holidays. Grandpa and I would eat and eat til they were all gone so grandma would hide them. Grandpa and I would always find them. One year she hid them in the shed behind the barn and the possums found them. They chewed her new GIANT Tupperware bowl and she was mad. Yours look a bit different but thanks for the wonderful memory. 👍
My mother would make DOZENS of holiday cookies and store them in the basement freezer. My bedroom was in the basement, also, and I would get up in the middle of the night and raid her cookie stash. Miss you, mom.❤
Once she said "I chopped the bejeezus out of it", I LOL'd and immediately subscribed 😁👍 I'll be making these this year for gifts. Thank you for this recipe. ❤
lol Me three! But, I have a similar recipe from more than 50 years ago. They are called Bon Bons and they have icing on top, not coconut. My mom made them now I have for 50 years. These look yummy!
Kathie Ingald Is your recipe the same as this one? Do you use the exact same ingredients for your bon bons? Also, you mentioned icing on them, do you make it like a glaze costing (like a glazed donut? Hope to hear back from you! Thanks!
I'm going to make them, just because you're the MOST ADORABLE, SWEET woman I've ever seen sharing her recipe!!! Ya sold me in these and I don't even like candied cherries! LoL Ahhhh too cute!!! I'll try to share mine after I make them...hugs from Ontario Canada I SUBSCRIBED!!!
These are fantastic! My zia and zio came to my house after I made these and they went crazy!!! They loved them and gave them my entire batch of cookies. LOL I baked more today in hopes I'll have some for the holidays. These were absolutely delicious
Your energy is so wonderful! And, YES! I'm going to be making your Cherry Snowball Cookies for folks at work this upcoming Thursday to give them a final boost to finish out the week with a smile on their faces! And... I was told to double your recipe: everyone wants them! They've got admirers galore! Thank You Diana!
I absolutely adore this lady and between her GREAT personality and cooking the way she explains everything to you in such a soothing manner.... Thank you thank you!!
I can’t begin to tell you how excited my family and I are making these beautiful cookies that found their way onto my feed today! My daughter loves maraschino cherries so I couldn’t go wrong and we had all the ingredients I just put a shadow of a panful into the oven and I have one coming out and being processed into snow footballs at the present time by my two granddaughters! I just wanted to tell you thank you and what a joy person joyful person you are❤️
I made this recipe and they are soooo good!! They seriously taste amazing. I used almond extract because I absolutely love almond extract. Thank you for this recipe I will be making this often:)
These cookies are awesome! We made our dough green and cut em' in half so you could see the red and green with the "snow" on top thanks so much for the recipe!
I made these cookies and put them on mixed cookie plates for my neighbors and friends. They were a huge hit! They are absolutely delicious! ! Thank you for sharing.
I made these cookies yesterday. I made them with Almond extract. They were so delicious. This was the first recipe I tried from your channel. Thank you for this recipe. I am adding these cookies to my favorite cookie list. I am going to look at your other cookies recipes and see which ones I will make next :-).
". . . you just chop the Bejesus out of it." Waaahaaaahaaa! 🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣 You're my kind of gal! I want to make these for Christmas. Thank you for posting! Blessings on you and yours and all who read this!!!😁😘😇
Diana DeLaFuente I see your no longer posting videos on TH-cam but I wanted you to know I adore your personality! You just made me smile ( a real smile, not a fake one I give so frequently) Thank you for that and this delicious recipe! Take care!
I am definitely going to try this recipe.. yummy! Here's my spin on it...I plan to dip the cookies into melted chocolate instead of the icing and coconut.. I wonder if you've tried that.. if so let me know how it came out.I'm sure they will come out wonderful!! Thanks for your wonderful recipes... warm wishes for the holidays..
I think the chocolate would be good. I may do half semi-sweet chocolate and half white chocolate, and do a whole recipe just like the recipe.. Some of my family is allergic to chocolate. Some of them don't coconut. Looks like a great new recipe for my Christmas cookie repertoire! I try to add at least one new recipe each year. Thankful I saw this recipe on You Tube.
I found this video last year and made a batch for my family and they LOVED these cookies! My eldest son, who is 30, asked for theses cookies again this year!! Thanks for sharing this recipe, it's become a new favourite holiday tradition!
You wouldn't happen to be an Italian New Yorker ? Lol. I am married to a Scicilian Italian and we were originally from PA. My mother in law would make cookies and say the same things !( She is an Italian MaMa !) Pepper cookies , & Anise or Italian wedding cookies ? Pizzelles ? But these- I have to make this year ! They look great and we love coconut. TY so much . ☃️🎁🎄
I finally made these yummy cookies, I was afraid I couldn’t get them to turn out, I did it so so cute and looks like I am an advanced baker. Thank you and Happy Holidays
i have been watching you and i just love you. you have the cutest spunk about you. and the joy you show in sharing your recipes definitely gets me in the kitchen trying. i hope you keep sharing cause i love watching you. you have good recipes and esp. these. i never heard of them!!!! getting in the kitchen now. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
Well, this IS next Christmas, and I just made these cute little cookies for our family Christmas party! They turned out just like yours. Thank you so much! I hope you have a very fun-filled, happy Christmas. God bless you.
Diana DeLaFuente, I'm so happy I found your video. With the holidays right around the corner, this is perfect. They made my mouth water, I just wanted to bite into them. Plus I love cherries and coconut. Thank you for posting. I'm going to pass this video to my daughter-in-law, she so enjoys making cookies, and my 7 yr. old grand daughter gets right in there with her.
I absolutely love this idea! You’re a great teacher! I use those little dollar tree gift bags for things I bake too. Hint: I use my food saver to seal them. It works great.
I was thinkin' since the Cherries are open and hollow (pitted)- Pipe some melted Dark Chocolate into the center of each. Or a Cashew. Soaking them in Rum sounds great too (the Cherries).
@@johannasmith3081 MMMMM Tint the Coconut colors and do some different Booze soaked Cherries. Pick out some pony bottles at the Liquor Store. My Father would love Anisette.
🕊️ Awwwwww! Soo cute! First Holiday with out Oma.. (mom) my daughter didn't want to see me lose it with our traditional German cookies that I grew up baking so I've been looking for a recipe for my daughter (15) and it bake this year..THIS IS IT!.. Thank you so much!and I think will roll some in powdered sugar as well..😉
I miss your videos! I make these every Christmas since I first saw this in 2013. I have to stop my husband from eating them all at one time. They are SOOOO GOOD!!! Merry Christmas, Diana! I hope you and your hubby are doing well. I hope you come back to TH-cam and post more videos.
Diana, I love your cuteness. I love your Jersey/New York accent. I am using the almond extract to make it more Italianie. Tastes like I'm back in Jersey. Delicious with the cherry.

I can visualize that 😂 My mom hid things too. Just not outdoors, however that's a great idea.
Fun memory.

Who doesn't love cookies? I could eat cookies everyday 😋

JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL AND LOVING IT..I LOVE MARASCHINO CHERRYS 🍒 AND CANT WAIT TO MAKE THESE , THANK YOU
I’ve been looking for Christmas cookie ideas using cherries! 🍒
You could marinate the cherries in rum for 2 weeks and use those for adults.
I like the way you think :)
Great idea........
Soaking them that long might take the color out, I'd just put rum in the glaze :)
Great idea, on the rum. Lol
M F YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This looks delicious and the coconut could be tinted holiday colors 🎄
Lisa Gialucci, Yes the different colors would be pretty
Lisa my thoughts exactly 😋
Lisa Gialucci wow ! Thank you for the great idea 💡.
I thought that very thing
red, white and green little sugar plums would be so adorable!

LatinKitchen1 what kind of. chocolate would you use to dip them
+Charlotte Pall
I would use either dark or milk chocolate...

Some of them don't coconut. Looks like a great new recipe for my Christmas cookie repertoire! I try to add at least one new recipe each year. Thankful I saw this recipe on You Tube.

These cookies were. Such a big hit with everyone . Thank you
I’m going to toast my coconut. It adds so much flavor to toast the coconut. I love love this recipe.
Love that idea. I kept it white because it’s suppose to look like a snowball…. But toasting it will be a delicious addition
You're a cute cookie, Ma'am! Completely delightful, and I like your cookies, too!
I've made this type of cookie for years and years. Try dipping them in chocolate. They are unbelievable, lol 👍
I'm concerned about the milk glaze... so I'd also prefer glazing them in chocolate. Merry Christmas!
