EDIT: I thought I had it, but it was wrong.
White retracts 1. c7xd8=Q and plays 1. c8=N#. The Black piece on d8 is a bishop. Black had previously underpromoted to reach this position.

Very nice!

Correct solution. Now how many of you thought of retracting a queen move and doing another queen move...

Not many, since all the possible checks are blockable or suicidal.
White retracts one half-move and mates in one. That is, undo a stupid mistake by White (I'm pretty sure it's a draw here, but I'm not a chess problem master so I'm not sure) and show that you're better by showing the correct move to mate immediately. Of course, the position after you retract a move must be a legal position (although not necessarily sound).
