Great cookie recipe. I made as directed and they came out just right. I like the dried cherry in these. I will make them again during the holidays. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Mmmmmm, Cookies! I made this yummy recipe using Recipe #504311 in place of the cherries. They are really a success here as oatmeal cookie always are. They came out half way between crisp and chewy and utterly yummy. Made for ZWT 9. :D
