CHERRY REFRIGERATOR COOKIES

These cookies are from a vintage 1960's cookbook. I am not a huge fan of candied cherries but I uploaded it so if anyone if looking for a candied cherry cookie they would fine one here.

INGREDIENTS

3/4 cup butter or margarine

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

2 3/4 cups sifted all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon soda

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup chopped candied cherries

1 cup chopped walnuts

DIRECTIONS

Cream butter and sugars together until fluffy. Add eggs and mix well.

Sift dry ingredients together and stir into creamed mixture.

Add cherries and nuts.

Shape into a couple of rolls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter and chill overnight.

Slice 1/4 inch thick and place on greased cookie sheet 1 inch apart.

Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until light browned. Makes 8 dozen cookies.
