1 cup butter or margarine or half butter, half margarine

1-1/2 cups granulated sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or Rum ;)

2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon cinnamon

*I like to add a pinch of nutmeg

1 (8 oz.) pkg. each candied red & green cherries, cut in quarters

1 (8 oz.) pkg. pitted dates, chopped

1 cup pecans or walnuts, chopped

Directions

Cream butter then gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy.

Add eggs and vanilla extract or Rum and beat well.

Combine flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon.

Gradually add to creamed mixture, beating well after each addition.

Stir in remaining ingredients.

Batter will be stiff.

Drop dough by heaping teaspoonfuls onto lightly greased cookie sheet.

Bake at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Cool for 1 minute and remove cookies to wire racks and cool completely. Makes approximately 6-7 dozen.
