Chocolate Cherry Cookies

Taken from March 2009 Good Food Magazine. I made these today and don't want to lose the recipe hence posting here. I used dried cherries instead of the glace cherries just because we prefer them. The raw dough can be frozen, if cooking from frozen add a few minutes to the cooking time.
