Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 sticks salted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 1/4 cups self-rising flour
3/4 cup white chocolate chips
3/4 cup dried cherries

3 cups powdered sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons white chocolate chips
2 tablespoons chopped dried cherries
2 tablespoons crushed pretzels
Directions:
Directions:
For the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat together the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Mix in the vanilla. Add the eggs one at a time, letting the first incorporate fully before adding the second.

With the mixer on low, add the flour in 3 increments, until just combined. Fold in the white chocolate chips, dried cherries and pretzels. With a half-cup scoop, scoop 12 large mounds, placing them on the prepared sheet pans a few inches apart. Refrigerate the scooped dough for 15 minutes. Bake until golden brown, 13-15 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and cool, about 15 minutes.

For the icing and toppings: Meanwhile, make the icing by beating the butter and powdered sugar together in a bowl. Add the milk, a tablespoon at a time, until you have the desired consistency. The icing should be thick but spreadable. Top each cookie with a heaping tablespoon of the icing and spread, leaving a small border empty around the edge. Sprinkle the tops with the white chocolate chips, dried cherries and crushed pretzels, lightly pressing them in if needed.
