This is my site for the recipe of one of my mother's favorite cookies during Christmastime.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 tbsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup red candied cherries
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
1 cup flaked coconut
Preparation:
Beat butter for 30 seconds. Add sugar and beat until fluffy. Add milk and vanilla, beat well.
Stir in flour, then cherries and pecans.
Shape into 7 inch long rolls. Roll dough in coconut to coat outside.
Wrap in waxed paper. Chill thoroughly (overnight is best).
Cut into 1/4 inch slices. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake 12 minutes (or until golden brown on edges) at 325 degree oven.
Makes about 5 dozen.
