It is a reminder that there are things in this world that just totally suck. And one of those things is cancer, specifically childhood cancer. Childhood cancer is the number one disease killer of children in the United States and at this moment there are over 40,000 children currently fighting this disease. That sucks, right?</p> <p>So, what can you do to help make a difference in these children’s lives? You can donate to our <a href="https://my.beagoodcookie.org/fundraiser/3089449" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="color: #ff715b;"><strong>Good Cookie Food Blogger’s Valentine’s Event</strong></span></a>. Today, I and over 50 other food recipe bloggers are sharing a Valentine’s Day recipe to help raise awareness and funds for <span style="color: #ff715b;"><strong><a style="color: #ff715b;" href="https://my.beagoodcookie.org/fundraiser/3089449" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Cookies for Kids’ Cancer</a></strong></span>. Below, you’ll find details on where to donate, as well as links to all of the amazing recipes being shared for this event.</p> <p>Now, for a little information about these cookies. These cookies are for the true vanilla fan. Not only do they have vanilla extract, but they also contain the seeds from two whole vanilla bean pods. And with a generous amount of chopped maraschino cherries and a chocolate kiss on top of each one, these cookies pretty much scream Valentine’s Day. They also taste even better after being stored for a few days. Now that’s something that doesn’t totally suck.</p> <p><img data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-40434" src="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/0F206863-C363-44DA-8056-2F4D1A7D1E95.jpeg?resize=600%2C900" alt="Vanilla Bean Cherry Chocolate Kiss Cookies - Looking for a sweet festive cookie to share with your loved one this Valentine's Day?

Pull the sides of each vanilla bean back and use the sharp knife to scrape the seeds out of each vanilla bean pod. Place the vanilla bean seeds in the mixing bowl and dispose of the empty vanilla bean pods.</li> <li>Add the vanilla extract and cherry juice to the mixing bowl; mix on medium speed for 1 minute.</li> <li>Add enough red food coloring to turn the mixture pink. Mix on medium speed for 1 minute.</li> <li>Add the flour and corn starch to the mixing bowl and mix on medium speed until just incorporated.</li> <li>Using a silicone spatula, fold the chopped cherries into the cookie dough.</li> <li>Use a cookie scoop to place scoops of cookie dough onto a Silpat or parchment paper-lined baking sheet.</li> <li>Bake the cookies for 14 minutes. Press an unwrapped kiss into the center of each cookie immediately after removing the cookies from the oven. Allow the cookies to rest for 5 minutes before removing them to a baking rack to finish cooling completely.</li> </ol> <p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-40435" src="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/4ACCE378-C9FA-40F9-8C95-7457925E56DE.jpeg?resize=600%2C900" alt="Vanilla Bean Cherry Chocolate Kiss Cookies - Looking for a sweet festive cookie to share with your loved one this Valentine's Day?

It only took about 1/8-teaspoon. You can use either gel food coloring or liquid food coloring.</li> <li>After you chop the maraschino cherries, place them on a few paper towels to help absorb any excess cherry juice. You do not want too much juice in your cookie dough.</li> <li>These cookies taste best after they sit for a day or two. The moisture from the maraschino cherries seeps into the cookie dough and gives them a lovely texture. I suggest not eating them as soon as they come out of the oven.</li> <li>This recipe will yield approximately 2 dozen cookies.</li> </ul> <p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-40440" src="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/8FFDF4A0-A812-41BB-A293-34C462ABB62E.jpeg?resize=600%2C900" alt="Vanilla Bean Cherry Chocolate Kiss Cookies - Looking for a sweet festive cookie to share with your loved one this Valentine's Day?

Cancer is the number one cause of death of children by disease in the United States. Currently, in the United States, there are 40,000 children actively battling cancer. The National Cancer Institute’s budget for childhood cancer is less than 4%. And, with the ongoing pandemic, children are still being diagnosed with cancer. It’s imperative that we raise awareness and continue to raise money to fund ongoing pediatric cancer research.</p> <a href='http://faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/dixie-crystals-2/'><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="150" height="150" src="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Dixie-Crystals.jpg?fit=150%2C150" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail" alt="" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Dixie-Crystals.jpg?w=226 226w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Dixie-Crystals.jpg?resize=150%2C150 150w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Dixie-Crystals.jpg?resize=75%2C75 75w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Dixie-Crystals.jpg?resize=110%2C110 110w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Dixie-Crystals.jpg?resize=120%2C120 120w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a> <a href='http://faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/heart-melting-chocolate-espresso-cookies/mediavine/'><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="150" height="150" src="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Mediavine.png?fit=150%2C150" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail" alt="" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Mediavine.png?w=226 226w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Mediavine.png?resize=150%2C150 150w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Mediavine.png?resize=75%2C75 75w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Mediavine.png?resize=110%2C110 110w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Mediavine.png?resize=120%2C120 120w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a> <a href='http://faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/oxo/'><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="150" height="150" src="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/OXO.jpg?fit=150%2C150" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail" alt="" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/OXO.jpg?w=300 300w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/OXO.jpg?resize=150%2C150 150w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/OXO.jpg?resize=75%2C75 75w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/OXO.jpg?resize=110%2C110 110w, https://i0.wp.com/faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/OXO.jpg?resize=120%2C120 120w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a> <p>This February, I am excited to participate in the Good Cookie Food Blogger’s Valentine’s Event with several other amazing food recipe bloggers. This is the fifth year for this Valentine’s Day fund-raising event whose goal is to make a difference in the fight against pediatric cancer. Our goal is to raise at least $3000. <span style="color: #ff715b;"><strong><a style="color: #ff715b;" href="http://www.dixiecrystals.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Dixie Crystals</a></strong></span>, <a href="https://www.mediavine.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="color: #ff715b;"><strong>Mediavine</strong></span></a>, and <span style="color: #ff715b;"><strong><a style="color: #ff715b;" href="https://www.oxo.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">OXO</a></strong></span> have each pledged to match our donations raised through this campaign, up to $3000. That means, due to their generosity, when we raise $1, it turns into $4. Thank you to all of those who generously choose to help us meet this fund-raising goal. Donations will be accepted until March 1, 2021.
