1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1/4 cup chopped candied cherry (red or green or combination of both) |

3/4 cup flaked coconut |
Directions:
1. Beat butter and sugar.
2. Add milk and vanilla.
3. Gradually stir in flour, mixing well.
4. Stir in nuts.
5. Form into 2 logs, approx 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
