Cherry Crunch Cookies

1 3/4 cups Flour
1/2 t salt
1/2 t cinnamon 
1/2 t baking soda
3/4 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 t vanilla
2 Tablespoons Milk
1 cup chopped candied cherries
3/4 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup chopped filberts (hazelnuts). I couldn't find these so I added more pecans

Mix all ingredients together except the cherries and nuts.  Fold in the cherries and nuts.  
Place 1/2 the mixture onto saran wrap and shape into tube.  Place in freezer for 30 mins.  Slice about 1/2 inch thick.  Bake at 350 for 10 minutes.


I love Old Fashioned recipes.  This Christmas cookie recipe will not disappoint.  Baking with candied cherries may sound scary.  It's not.  They taste so good in this vintage recipe.
