Ingredients:


1/2 cup soft butter


3/4 cup sifted confectionary sugar


1 tablespoon vanilla


1 1/2 cup flour


1/8 teaspoon salt


20-25 maraschino cherries


Directions:


Mix the butter, sugar and vanilla.  Then blend in the flour and salt.  If this mixture is dry add 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk.  Mix well all the ingredients.


Drain the cherries.  Press 1 tablespoon of dough around a well drained cherry making sure to cover the whole cherry.  Repeat this for all the cherries.  Then bake at 350° for 12 to 15 minutes on an ungreased cookie sheet. 


You can make an icing with confectionary sugar and a teaspoon or two of water till you get a liquid consistency or just powder it on if you prefer it that way.  Serve and enjoy.
