CHERRY COOKIES
It was my great-Aunt Rose that made these tender, cake-like cookies for Italian wedding trays, Christmas, or ME! I added the little drizzle of frosting when I decided to include them in my Christmas cookie tray, and they were wonderful. But, don't wait for Christmas or a wedding...try them anytime!
