For a deeper coconut flavor, toast the shredded coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown, stirring frequently. Allow to cool completely before adding to the dough. To prevent the cherries from bleeding too much color into the dough, pat them dry with paper towels after chopping. These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For a nutty flavor, toast the walnuts in a dry skillet or in the oven until lightly golden and fragrant.
