directions

  • Lightly grease one cookie sheet (spray oil works well for this).
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Blend flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until dough is formed.
  • Stir in cherries and almonds.
  • Turn the dough out on lightly floured surface and knead several times. Using the greased cookie sheet as a surface, divide the dough in half and form into two flat logs about 9 inches long and 3 inches wide.
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until lightly browned on top.
  • Let cool directly on the baking sheet resting on a rack for 10 minutes.
  • Lower heat to 325°F.
  • On a cutting board, cut the logs on the diagonal into 1/2-inch-thick pieces.
  • Put back into oven for 5 minutes.
  • Turn over and bake 5 more minutes.
  • Remove from cookie sheet and cool on baking rack.
  • Store in airtight container.

  1. Very good! My mother-in-law lives in Michigan and sends me dried cherries several times a year. I have been searching for recipes to use them in- I will definitely make these again.
     
  2. Made these tonight for my christmas baking. I did dip them in chocolate as the recipe suggested--dark chocolate, to be specific. They are divine. Perfect texture and wonderful flavor, even without the white chocolate, which I did not have on hand. thanks for posting!
