Can anyone tell me where I can find a GOOD Cherry Almond Cookie recipie? This is hard to find, for me anyway. I am thinking of trying a sugar cookie dough, mincing mericheno (sp?) cherries, almond flavoring, with diced almonds. Has anyone done this or can you help? It reminds me of the Older Jergens Lotion. Todays is fine but nothing like the old originals! Well the smell reminds me of it, not the taste! HA!
I've looked on the net and can't find anything.

This is my Great Gran's Cherry Cookies recipe. I make them for my dad at Christmas.
In large bowl combine:
1- 1/4 c. gran. white sugar
3/4 c. oil
2 large eggs
1 (14.5 oz.) can Red Tart Cherries. (NOT PIE FILLING!), drain and reserve liquid. (I mash mine a bit first.)
1/3 c. of reserved liquid
1/2 tsp. each vanilla and almond extract
In smaller bowl combine:
3 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt ( I use Kosher)
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
Stir the two combinations together. Will be "runny" like cake batter. (I chill my batter for about 1/2 an hour, but not necessary)Then drop by tablesoonfuls onto greased or parchment lined cookie sheets.
Bake at 375 for 12-15 minutes.
My kids talked me into adding chocolate chips and it was amazing then I added slivered almonds for myslef. They were delicious! These cookies are soft like cake.
Happy Baking.
